Legendary actor Philip Baker Hall dies at 90

Philip Baker Hall, the prolific film and theater character actor who starred in Paul Thomas Anderson’s first films and famously hunted down a long-overdue library book in Seinfeld, has died. He was 90.

Holly Wolfle Hall, the actor’s wife of nearly 40 years, announced on Monday that Hall died on Sunday in Glendale, California, surrounded by loved ones. She said Hall had been in good health until a few weeks ago and had spent his final days reflecting on his life.

“His voice was still as powerful at the end,” Wolfle Hall said. Her husband, she added, had never stopped acting.
