Guest guest Posted March 27, 2002 Report Share Posted March 27, 2002 FYI to All -- You may have heard that Dudley , comedian famous for the lead role in such films as " Ten " , and " Arthur " , and well known for his part along with Cooke in the show/tv/concert presentation of " Beyond the Fringe. " died last night in LA. The cause of death was given as pneumonia and it has been variously reported as having been precipitated by " a progressive brain disorder similar to Parkinson's Disease, " and in one report I've seen as " a rare blood disorder. " He was widely thought to have MSA for several years. No mention of MSA or SDS that I have seen on the wires. I don't think he ever spoke pubicly about it, although I do remember his doing an interview on the Tonight show some time ago where he talked a bit but seemed pretty sick even at that point.
