Denis Arndt, Vietnam veteran and Tony-nominated actor, has passed away at 86. From flying helicopters in Vietnam to landing iconic roles on shows like Picket Fences and L.A. Law, Arndt didn’t make his Broadway debut until 77 — and earned a Tony nomination for it. His family says his life “started in black and white and blossomed into a life of color, brilliance, daring adventure and passion.” A remarkable man. A remarkable journey. 🕊 More in bio.
