BIOGRAPHY: [no bio found]
TRIVIA:
- Often works with 'Steve Martin (I)' (qv) (_The Muppet Movie (1979)_ (qv), _Little Shop of Horrors (1986)_ (qv), _Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988)_ (qv), _HouseSitter (1992)_ (qv), _Bowfinger (1999)_ (qv)).
- His mother was Flemish and his father Dutch.
- Has appeared in many of director 'John Landis' (qv)' films as a good luck charm of sorts. He didn't appear in _Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983)_ (qv) and Landis had plenty of bad luck during that film. In _Trading Places (1983)_ (qv) he plays a cop taking an inventory of 'Dan Aykroyd' (qv)'s personal items, ironically reprising his role from _The Blues Brothers (1980)_ (qv), where he took an inventory of the other Blues Brother's personal items, 'John Belushi' (qv), as Belushi was being freed from jail.
- Uncle of 'Michelle Oznowicz' (qv) and 'Jenny Oznowicz' (qv).
- Collaborated five times with composer 'Miles Goodman' (qv). _Little Shop of Horrors (1986)_ (qv), _Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988)_ (qv), _What About Bob? (1991)_ (qv), _HouseSitter (1992)_ (qv) and _The Indian in the Cupboard (1995)_ (qv). However, Goodman's score to _The Indian in the Cupboard (1995)_ (qv) became unused and replaced by a score composed by 'Randy Edelman' (qv).
- The middle 3 letters of his car's license plate are "PYK", for Piggy, Yoda and Kermit. It is believed to be a coincidence, because it is a standard DMV-issued license plate, not a vanity plate.
- 1961: Met 'Jim Henson (I)' (qv) in Asilomar, California.
- Is a recipient of the prestigious Connor Award, given by the brothers of the Phi Alpha Tau fraternity based out of Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. He is also an honourary brother of the fraternity.
