Clifford "Cliff" Emmich (born December 13, 1936 Cincinnati, Ohio, USA) is an American television and film actor. He is a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences as well as the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences and a Best-known Voice actor of Kograth in Disney animated film The Professor.
Cliff gave a superb performance as arrogant country singer Rip Torn's loyal, but long-suffering chauffeur Chicago in the outstanding indie drama gem "Payday." Other memorable roles are a coroner in the fantastic "Invasion of the Bee Girls," a sexist jerk business executive who insults Yvette Mimieux at the very start of the excellent redneck exploitation winner "Jackson County Jail," a bumbling small town deputy in "Barracuda;" very likable as ill-fated hospital security guard Mr. Garrett in "Halloween II," an asylum doctor in the trashy "Hellhole," and a small town sheriff in "Digital Man." Among the many TV shows Cliff has done guest spots on are "Crossing Jordan," "Walker, Texas Ranger," "Nash Bridges," "Coach," "Baywatch," "Murder, She Wrote," "Knots Landing," "Night Court," "Hunter," "Rip Tide," "Simon & Simon," "CHiPs," "Knight Rider," "The Incredible Hulk," "Vega$," "Fantasy Island," "Happy Days," "Little House on the Prairie" (this is one of Emmich's favorite parts), "Charlie's Angels," "Baretta," "Police Woman," and "Starsky and Hutch."
