Robert Shaw
One of my favorite actors in Jaws was Robert Shaw playing Quint. It is hard to believe that 30 years have passed this August since he died in Ireland at the age of 51 from a heart attack.
Robert Shaw was an actor, writer, father to ten and married three times. He was in many movies but most Americans remember him for Jaws. A movie that he didn’t like the script for and he didn’t know anything about the director. I’m glad he did it anyway.
Here is one of two tributes by RedWolf100 at YouTube who runs the site Robert Shaw For All Seasons. I recommend visiting RedWolf100’s site to learn more about a truly wonderful man and actor.
