Very familiar face. Never knew his name, though.

RIP
He directed the quirky A Boy and His Dog, based on the Harlan Ellison story. I always picture him with Warren Oates.

I seem to recall him being in a few Chuck Norris flicks (Lone Wolf McQuade as one) back in the day.

I wonder if he was in this Peckinpah classic?

He was Black Harris in Peckinpah’s Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid:

The guy shaving at the beginning of the clip, who later in the scene gets shot by Garrett (James Coburn).
LQ Jones, finally knocking on heaven’s door.

One of my favorites. He and Strother Martin were a great team.

***He directed the quirky A Boy and His Dog,***
I noticed that last week when I watched that movie!
In THE WILD BUNCH he was T.C. In the scene with Strother Martin (”Liar. LIAR! BLACK LIAR!”) when they loot one of the victims. “Come on T. C. Get his boots!” if yo will notice, while T.C. is getting his boots Martin is looting and hiding the stuff from the victim’s pocket.
