Daniel von Barge, a veteran actor of both the big screen and the small screen, passed away over the weekend after long battle with an unknown illness.
He was 64 years old.
The actor’s death was confirmed by Cincinnati TV station WLWT, though no further details are available at this time.
"We are learning of this event at the same time as the rest of the industry and are deeply saddened to hear of Daniel’s loss. Although we represented Daniel to the Voice Over Industry for many years, for the past five years he had been grappling with health issues that precluded his active pursuit of work in this area," Chas Cowing, co-owner of Access Talent, tells E! News.
"We remember him fondly for his easy-going professionalism and dry wit, both of which stood in stark contrast to the driven and near-maniacal roles he often performed with such energy and intensity.
"He was a joy to work with and we have missed that association since his semi-retirement to Cincinnati. May he rest in peace."
von Barge is best known to many as George’s boss for multiple years in Seinfeld.
But he also appeared in Super Troopers, Silence of the Lambs, Basic Instinct, Rising Sun, Six Degrees of Separation, Philadelphia, Crimson Tide and O Brother Where Art Thou?.
We send our thoughts and prayers to the actor’s loved ones.
