James Earl Jones

 

James Earl Jones, the beloved actor whose career spanned 70 years, from the mid-50's until this decade, has died at the age of 93. 

He was and will always be remembered as the iconic voice of Darth Vader, but his career was much more than that; his roles on stage and film are too many and varied to list here. Jones, a fellow Catholic, was the winner of three Tony Awards, a Grammy, a Golden Globe, and a Lifetime Achievement Oscar. 

When I think of him Darth Vader comes first to mind, followed quickly by Field of Dreams, and The UFO Incident, in which he played Barney Hill, an alleged victim of alien abduction. 

RIP
