RIP Sam Shephard
 

Both an actor in films such as Baby Boom and The Right Stuff as well as a writer, most notably the Pulitzer Prize-winning play Buried Child, Shephard passed due to Lou Gehrig's disease at 73.

My condolences go to his fans, family, and friends. Rest easy Sam.

Seen him in a number of flicks, including All The Pretty Horses, Black Hawk Down, Felon, & Charlotte's Web. When I first saw him he reminded me of Craig T Nelson. What a career he seemed to have both in Hollywood & the theater, enjoy heaven Sam Shepard.
