Leonard Frey originally wanted to be a painter but in college he became interested in acting. He gained fame in the theater for his role of Harold in "Boys In The Band" in 1968. He reprised his role in the William Friendkin film in 1970. He was nominated for a Tony Award for "The National Health". He was nominated for an Academy Award for his role as Motel in the Norman Jewison film, " Fiddler on the Roof". He appeared in a variety of films and television, including the 1983 series, "Mr. Smith" on NBC.
I have been an avid fan of Donald Madden since the 1980's. I am very happy to contribute to this site on his behalf. 2018 marks the 35th anniversary of his passing and sadly, most of us are too young to have seen him on stage , not much of his television work remains, and for reasons of his own, he chose to do only one theatrical film. Still, the available examples of his work shows an actor masterful at his craft. I hope through the website to be able to keep his memory alive.
