| Dennis Farina, a former Chicago cop who as an actor played a TV cop on Law & Order during his wide-ranging career, has died. He was 69.
After suffering a blood clot in his lung he died in a Scottsdale, Arizona, hospital according to his publicist, Lori De Waal.
For three decades, Farina was a character actor who displayed remarkable dexterity, charm and toughness, making effective use of his craggy face, husky frame, ivory smile and ample moustache. He could be as dapper as Fred Astaire and as full of threat as Clint Eastwood. His gift has been described as wry, tough-guy panache, and audiences loved him for it.
