R.I.P., John Spencer

Actor John Spencer, who played Leo McGarry on The West Wing, died on Friday of a heart attack, a few days short of his 59th birthday.

Kam and I recently finished watching season 4 of the series; we're giving up on it now, having heard it goes seriously downhill in quality in the next season. But four seasons of excellence is pretty good, and Spencer did a really great job as Leo.

Wow; I saw him on stage at the Taper in LA, in Glimmer Glimmer & Shine, and thought he was great there too.
