Ken Howard, the strapping character actor who starred in the 1970s TV drama The White Shadow and was currently serving as president of SAG-AFTRA, has died at age 71.(CBC)
The union announced Howard's death Wednesday. No cause was given.
Howard's career spanned four decades in TV, theatre and film. In the acclaimed CBS series The White Shadow, which aired from 1978-81, he starred as a white coach to an urban high school basketball team a part, one of Howard's best known, that drew on the personal history of the 6-foot-6 actor, who played basketball growing up on Long Island in New York and at Amherst College.
The series' title came from Howard's nickname as the only white starter on the Manhasset High varsity team.

His other TV credits included The West Wing, NYPD Blue, The Practice, Boston Legal, Law & Order: SVU, Curb Your Enthusiasm and The Office.
George Clooney recounted Howard's influence on him, writing in a statement that when he first met Howard on a studio lot in 1983, the actor wished him well and said he hoped they'd work together in the future. When Clooney told Howard he had an audition across town but only had a bike, Howard put Clooney's bike in his car and drove the aspiring actor to the other studio, Clooney wrote.
"I didn't get that audition, But I did get the chance to work with him years later [in Michael Clayton]. It was an honour," Clooney wrote. "Today his obituary read that he was six foot six, but he was so much taller than that."

The $20 Blockhead replaces the standard American AC prong snap-in with prongs that sit at a 90-degree angle. This allows the MacBooks power adapter to sit flush against the wall when plugged in, instead of sticking out from the wall, as it does when using the standard prongs. This allows the MacBooks adapter to fit into tight spaces, such as the couch shown above, and plus its not hanging out form the wall, where it can be easily knocked out, or even fall from the socket under its own weight.(MacTrast)
