MILESTONES, Page 25
DIED. Vincent Gardenia, 70, actor; of a heart attack; in
Philadelphia. Gardenia died an actor's death -- in a hotel room
on tour. And he lived an actor's life, blending the passion of
Italian opera with the patois of Brooklyn's streets in 50 years
of stage and screen triumphs, including a Tony Award-winning
turn in Neil Simon's The Prisoner of Second Avenue (1971) and
Oscar-nominated appearances that cemented his relationship with
moviegoers and casting directors alike: the hard-edged baseball
manager in Bang the Drum Slowly (1973) and the softhearted
philanderer in Moonstruck (1987).
