Ossie Davis

Date of birth 18 December 1917 Cogdell, Georgia, USA
Date of death 4 February 2005

Ossie Davis of Bubba Ho-Tep fame has died early last month. This is a crying shame as he was brilliant, as a Spike Lee regular (Jungle Fever, Malcolm X), but especially in Bubba Ho-Tep as a wheel chair bound JFK (yes, the real one) - if you haven't seen this movie, do.

God bless you Ossie!
