One of Hollywood’s few non-liberals has died of cancer.
Actor and longtime political activist Ron Silver died this morning, succumbing to a long battle with cancer, friends of the liberal Democrat-turned-GOP stalwart told The Post.
“Ron Silver died peacefully in his sleep with his family around him this morning,” said Robin Bronk, executive director of the Creative Coalition, which Silver helped create.
He will be missed.
He will be missed.
The first time I saw Ron Silver was when he and Jerry Lewis starred in one of the Wiseguy arcs. Both were excellent. I was a bit disappointed to learn he was a far-left Hollywood political activist. He, like Dennis Miller, changed politically after 9/11.
