Sorry to see this. Just watched an episode couple weeks ago. Decent show.

Well...shit.

No reboot of "Dave's World" upcoming. He was a good guy with many a decent magic trick.

Seemed like a likable, happy guy. So much for the Night Court reboot. Damn.

I liked his Daves World show even though I had no idea who Dave Barry was.

Then Ray Romano copied it.

Sheesh....65 is less than twenty years away for me....

It's ok, Don. He's in heaven now with Hal Greer and most of Barbara Bush.

wow that sucks.

Not sure what he was doing recently but seemed like a normal guy for a celebrity.

i used to have a book he wrote on card tricks.

always liked him as a comic actor. and he was great in "it".

Had no idea about his background....


His role as the swindler Harry (the Hat) Gittes on “Cheers” — he appeared in six episodes, four in the first two seasons — led to his break on “Night Court” after he impressed the legendary television executive Brandon Tartikoff.

Even Harry the Hat echoed Mr. Anderson’s real life. In 1985, he told People magazine that he used to run a classic street hustle, the shell game, in San Francisco, where, at 21 years old, he had his jaw broken by an opponent who was livid at the game’s outcome.

Mr. Anderson, one of three children, was born on Oct. 14, 1952, in Newport, R.I., and spent much of his childhood on the move, often performing on the streets for money, he told People. By 16, he had lived in many cities including Chicago, New York, St. Louis and New Orleans. He landed in California at 16 years old and from there found success as a comic magician, which opened the door to his acting career.

About his mother, he said to People: “She was a hustler, yeah. She did a lot of things. We moved around a lot, and she had a lot of men friends.”

His childhood, though, was not bad, he said, adding that his dubious background should not be viewed any differently from his mother’s. “I respect my mother; she was very concerned with taking care of us,” he said. “She did what needed to be done to try to keep us together. People find my criminal days amusing, but they find her background shocking. I don’t draw any line.”

Mr. Anderson told People that his father was a salesman who was mostly absent from his life, and that he had not seen him for 15 years before his death.
