You tapped Mark Twain with uncanny precision, as well as Abraham Lincoln in North and South and later Francis Preston Blair in Spielberg's 2012 commemoration of the President.
To horror fans, you were a welcome and seasoned presence in The Fog '80; Creepshow; Rituals (aka The Creeper); and The Unholy.
Among action, mystery and intrigue, you covered even more ground, starring in Capricorn One; Magnum Force; Wild in the Streets; The Star Chamber; They Only Kill Their Masters; Clear and Present Danger; Fletch Lives; Shade; Hush, Pueblo; Judas Kiss; The Firm; Men of Honor; The Majestic; Murder by Natural Causes; The Kidnapping of the President; and All the President's Men.
In later years, you even loaned your distinctive voice to such endearing, animated efforts as Cats Don't Dance and Planes: Fire and Rescue.
You were a man of staunch opinion and style, Mr. Holbrook, one who excelled at emulating others, but was never afraid to flaunt his uninhibited self.
