Alan Arkin, whose acting career spans seven decades on both the screen and stage and includes some of Hollywood’s most popular films, has died. He was 89.
Perhaps best known for his ability to project a characteristically dry repartee in his roles as well as his penchant for playing dramatic parts, Arkin had earned two Screen Actors Guild Awards, a Golden Globe Award, a Tony Award as well as a British Academy Film Award and an Oscar during his career. He appeared in more than 100 TV and feature films.
