Dennis Burkley

Actor

Born - 10 September 1945, Van Nuys, California, USA
Died - 14 July 2013

Big, beefy American character actor with light beard and moustache, a sure bet for rednecks, sheriffs, bartenders and other sweaty characters over a 30-year period. On TV from 1970, he was soon busy in films: Bummer (1973), Nightmare Honeymoon (1974), Stay Hungry (1976), Heroes (1977), Mask (1985), Murphy's Romance (1985), Who's That Girl (1987), Fletch Lives (1989), An Innocent Man (1989), The Doors (1991), Stop! or My Mom Will Shoot (1992), Tin Cup (1996), Con Air (1997), Vice (2000), Hollywood Homicide (2003) and Keep Your Distance (2005), his last. He died from a heart attack in his sleep.
