Jack Axelrod – a longtime TV actor best known from “General Hospital” – has died.
His representative confirmed his death Entertainment weekly, in which he said he died of natural causes on November 28 in LA. She added: “I had the pleasure of spending a lot of time with him over the last few years as he had no immediate family. We spent a lot of time outdoors, where Jack enjoyed sketching, reading news articles and reciting Shakespeare’s sonnets.”
As we mentioned, Axelrod will probably be best remembered for playing Victor Jerome on ‘GH’ for 40 episodes in the ’80s… but he had a long and illustrious career outside of that too.
In addition to his service to the famous soap opera, Axelrod also famously guest-starred on ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ for a few episodes in the 2000s, playing Charlie Yost opposite Katherine Heigl and Ellen Pompeo.
Other famous shows he had played in… ‘My Name is Earl’, ‘Scrubs’, ‘Malcolm in the Middle’, ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’, ‘The Help’, ‘Dallas’, ‘Hill Street Blues’ ,’ ‘Kojak’, ‘Dynasty’, ‘Nachthof’, ‘Knots Landing’, ‘Murphy Brown’, ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’, ‘Boy Meets World’, ‘Jack & Jill’, ‘Dharma en Greg’, ‘ Star Trek: Voyager,” “Alias,” “Frasier,” “Hawthorne,” “Criminal Minds,” “NCIS,” “Hawaii Five-0,” “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” “Ray Donovan,” “Modern Family” … and more.
He was a really experienced actor and he worked a lot. Axelrod lived to be 93.
