Veteran actor and dirty talk sex videos fuckingsinger René Auberjonois has died of metastatic lung cancer at his Los Angeles home on Dec. 8. Auberjonois' son Rèmy-Luc confirmed the news to The Associate Press on Sunday. He was 79.
Auberjonois was a well-respected and admired actor, having worked in the industry for over four decades. After studying theatre at Carnegie-Mellon University, Auberjonois performed with various theatre companies before landing his first Broadway role in 1968. His career quickly took off, the actor winning a Tony the next year for his role in as Sebastian Baye in Coco, opposite Katharine Hepburn.
Auberjonois began his film career in 1970, playing Father Mulcahy in the original M*A*S*H movie. But he was most well known for his television work, in particular his roles as Benson's snobby chief of staff Clayton Endicott III, Boston Legal's serious senior partner Paul Lewison, and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's Changeling security chief Odo.
