Don Harvey on AllMovie

Not to be confused with 1950s Columbia contractee Don C. Harvey, American general-purpose actor Don Harvey began appearing in films in the mid-'80s, and was seen in secondary roles in such high-profile productions as Casualties of War (1989), Die Hard 2 (1990), and The Thin Red Line (1998), in addition to the made-for-cable feature Better Off Dead (1993). Because he was safely ensconced among the featured players, Harvey managed to survive such notorious flops as Hudson Hawk (1991) and Tank Girl (1995). One of his more prominent screen roles was "Black Sox" conspirator Swede Risberg in John Sayles' Eight Men Out (1988).
