In particular, his role in the series “Seinfeld” made Peter Crombie known to a larger audience. From 1992 to 1993, he played the role of Crazy Joe Davola in the American sitcom, in which he played a writer with psychological problems.
In the years that followed, the TV actor landed roles in ‘NYPD Blue’, ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’ and ‘Law & Order’. He also conquered the big screen in films like ‘Seven’ and ‘Natural Born Killers’.
Now his career has come to an abrupt end: Peter Crombie died on Wednesday evening at the age of 71. As American media report, the actor succumbed to a short but serious illness. There is currently no further information regarding the nature of his illness or the circumstances of his death.
In an interview with TMZ, Peter Crombie’s ex-wife Nadine Kijner confirms his death – and mourns her ex-partner: “He was the kindest, most caring, generous and attentive man. He was loved by everyone, generous and never had anything bad to say about someone,” she explains. Bill Stetz, a close friend of the late actor, also describes Crombie as a “gentle and loyal friend who did expressive work as an actor.”
According to the film database “IMDb”, Peter Crombie started his career in the television film “The Broken Vow”, which was released in 1987. There he can be seen alongside Tommy Lee Jones and Annette O’Toole, who play the leading roles. However, the American not only made a name for himself as an actor, he was also active behind the camera: he is listed as the author of the short film ‘Threshold’, which was released in 2006.
