It was just back in late-May when we reported that Roger Rees, then starring in The Visit on Broadway opposite Chita Rivera had departed the show on a medical leave. Today, we are sad to share the news that the Tony-winning star passed away on Friday evening after battling a brief illness, at home in New York at 71.

Below, take a look back at this brilliant stage and screen actor's career with video clips from the television shows CHEERS and THE WEST WING, Broadway productions such as THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF NICHOLAS NICKLEBY, THE VISIT, and many more. He will be missed.
