Remembering Ed Asner-- Part 1: A Varied and Long Career

From the September 3, 2021, Chicago Tribune "Remember Asner by revisiting his must-see roles" by Nardine Saad, L.A. Times.

With a storied six-decade career, the late Ed Asner packed his repertoire with dozens of beloved characters and many, many cameos and guest appearances.  

Of course, most of us always remember him for playing Lou Grant on the show of that name and the "Mary Tyler Moore Show."  But he also had a string of Broadway credits and began his TV career in anthology series like "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" and "Route 66" then "Thunder Alley" and "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip."

He was a seven-time Emmy Award winner and died recently at age 91 and worked until near the end.
