Glass was best known for his portrayal of Detective Ron Harris in Barney Miller. Younger fans are more likely to remember him as Shepherd Book in the cult sci-fi TV series Firefly. Glass would reprise this role in the 2005 film Serenity. Among his final screen credits were appearances on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and CSI.
Glass becomes the second Barney Miller cast member to pass away in 2016. Abe Vigoda who played Detective Phil Fish died in January at the age of 94.
Although Glass played a suave ladies' man in Detective Harris, he never married in real life. But he lived a happy life as a Buddhist and made others happy with craft. Myself included.
