About Abe Vigoda

February 8th, 2010 by admin | Filed under Broadcasting News.

Abraham Charles “Abe” Vigoda (born February 24, 1921) is an American movie and television actor. Vigoda is known for his portrayal of Sal Tessio in The Godfather, but he is perhaps best known for his portrayal of Detective Sgt. Phil Fish on the sitcom television series Barney Miller from 1975-1977 and on its spinoff show Fish that aired from February 1977-June 1978 on ABC. Vigoda was actually still also appearing on Barney Miller at the same time as he was on Fish during the 1976-1977 TV season. At the start of the 1977-1978 season, his character retired from the police force and left Barney Miller to focus full time on the spinoff.
