Probably most widely-known for his role as “Bruno” on the NBC drama, The West Wing, actor Ron Silver passed away Sunday (March 15) at his home in New York City.
The Tony-Award winning actor “died peacefully in his sleep with his family around him this morning.” ” He had been fighting esophageal cancer for two years and his family is making arrangements for a private service.” said Robin Bronk, executive director of the Creative Coalition, which Silver helped create.
Silver famously turned from a lifelong Democrat to an outspoken supporter of President George W. Bush’s Republican administration after the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York. He spent his life not only as a Actor but as a Political Activist.
Ron was 62 years old and is survived by his son Adam and daughter Alexandra.
