Erich Anderson has died after a ‚brutal struggle with cancer.‘ The working actor and novelist, who notched credits in more than 100 productions, was 67.
Erich Anderson, a veteran working actor who found his breakout role in “Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter” and was a recurring character in shows including “Felicity,” “Bosch” and “Thirtysomething,” has died. He was 67.
Anderson’s wife, actor Saxton Trainor, confirmed the news via Instagram but declined to post a statement because she was “too bereft now to write anything.” Instead, she shared a statement from Anderson’s brother-in-law, Michael O’Malley, that said the actor died Friday after a “brutal struggle with cancer.”
“Erich was such an amazing person,” Anderson’s manager, Chris Carbaugh, told The Times. “He was a great actor, author, cook, husband, friend and human being. … Erich was an avid sports fan and he loved cheering on his beloved San Diego Padres baseball team. He was always the smartest and funniest person in the room and had such a big heart.
