I'm surprised nobody put this guy's name down. Hogan's Heros Actor Ivan Dixon has passed away on Sunday. He was 76 years old.
 
I think that the Associated Press must have just gotten the report this morning. I remember watching Ivan Dixon in Hogan's Heroes and the Twilight Zone, among other roles. He also directed many shows, including Magnum, Rockford, GAH, Quantum Leap, Quincy, and others. For the full story, click here.
 
RIP Ivan Dixon :( I certainly remember him from Hogan's Heroes. He was good in that show. All the actors were. I did recognize his name as the director on numerous shows that I you mentioned Dynamo1. He will be sorrily missed :(
