He has continued to garner more awards as his theater accomplishments grow, leading to an induction into the Theater Hall of Fame in 2007. He also has had immense television and film roles. His television appearances include reoccurring roles on Northern Exposure, ER and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. He has also been in films like The Night Listener, Held Up, The Notorious Bettie Page and Hamlet.
