Michael Ashe

Michael Ashe was a professional actor, a lifer in the business. You could say the same of Paul Newman or Jerry Orbach, but Ashe was of a more common breed: the scrapper who never becomes famous but somehow makes a living—in Ashe’s case, doing bit roles on Knots Landing and Murder, She Wrote, appearing in commercials for Brylcreem and Contac cold medicine, and performing in dinner-theater productions of plays like Cactus Flower and The Seven Year Itch. He died on July 31, 2008 in USA
