Copying this cool post that I just caught on James Tolkan's page:

It was good to see him on "Leverage" and to know that he hasn't retired. Tolkan also did a great job with his role in "Heavens Fall."

Tolkan really shines in his many and varied roles on "A Nero Wolfe Mystery." And he does show some hair in "Nero Wolfe."

The Complete Hair/No Hair James Tolkan in "A Nero Wolfe Mystery" list:

The Doorbell Rang, Richard Wragg, No Hair
Champagne For One, Mr. Hackett, No Hair
Prisoner's Base, Bernard Quest, Hair
Disguise For Murder, W.J., No Hair
Door To Death, Joseph Pitcairn, No Hair
Over my Dead Body, Percy Ludlow, Hair
Death Of A Doxy, Avery Ballou, No Hair
Die Like A Dog, Loftus, No Hair
Motherhunt, Leo Bingham, Hair
Poison A La Carte, Adrian Dart, Hair
Too Many Clients, Benedict Aiken, Hair
Help Wanted, Male, Ben Jenson, No Hair
The Silent Speaker, Richard Wragg, No Hair
Cop Killer, Ed Graboff, No Hair (but a magnificent mustache)

Thanks for forwarding that list, Tina!

I must say, though, that Tolkan is so distinctive that hair/no hair makes very little difference. He's terrific (though I do wish he wouldn't do that evil laugh quite so often!).
