Woops, pushed the wrong button...I meant to continue that Cooper also appeared as a criminal pretending to be a Catholic priest, using this as a cover to set up a jewel heist in "Kojak". Of course, he was great in Columbo as the corrupt candidate for senator in "Candidate for Crime". As I understand, he was a naval officer in the Second World War. Great actor!

Happy Birthday Jackie!!! They were running his movies on TCM yesterday. What a little cutie-pie!!!
