I saw Mr. Braugher in Glory but it was in Homicide: Life on the Streets that I remember him best. A fine actor, gone much too soon, condolences to his family.
Back when I was acting full time, I did a double episode of Homicide. It was in the 7th and last season so Braugher had already left the show. I got to work w Giancarlo Esposito (which was cool) and Yaphet Kotto (which was endlessly cool), but I regret not having been able to watch and learn from this man.
Missed a second chance when I couldn't do an ep of Hack, because I had relocated to Milwaukee.
Now I teach, and just yesterday - an hour before the news broke - I used, as I do each semester, a scene of Pembleton in the box with Isaiah Washington. Great teaching tool. He was the finest actor on TV...and Viola Davis and Olivia Coleman are on TV. So...
A wonderful tribute. It’s so sad we lost him too soon. I can only imagine how much more he might have developed his comedic chops and how likely delightful that might have been.

He was and his family are members of my daughter's Unitarian Church.
