Norman Lloyd, who memorably fell to his death from the Statue of Liberty as the villain in Alfred Hitchcock’s “Saboteur” in the 1940s but became best known four decades later as kindly Dr. Daniel Auschlander on TV’s “St. Elsewhere,” has died at his home in Brentwood.
Lloyd, who was also a director and producer, died Tuesday, said Dean Hargrove, a television producer and longtime friend. He was 106
and was generally considered to be the world’s oldest living film actor, working into his 90s.
On “St. Elsewhere,” the medical drama set in the seedy St. Eligius Hospital in Boston, Lloyd played Dr. Auschlander during the show’s six-season run, from 1982-88.
