Robert Vaughn

Robert Vaughn was a genuine craftsman whose career spanned nearly six decades, and I respect that he was more than a familiar face. Most remember him as the suave spy Napoleon Solo, but his Emmy win and Walk of Fame star reflect real range across film, stage and television. What interests me is the man behind the cool: a University of Minnesota graduate and outspoken political activist who used his platform with conviction. That intellectual backbone gave his villains and heroes alike a grounded gravity. When he passed in 2016 we lost one of the last of a certain breed of polished, principled leading men.
