I just saw a post about this on twitter and sought out confirmation. Michael O'Hare, who portrayed Babylon 5 Commander Jeffrey Sinclair, passed away yesterday.

    Tragic news and while no spring chicken, 60 is far too young.

    He is the fourth big name actor from B5 to pass away after richard Biggs, Andreas Katsulas, and Jeff Conaway.

    I'm not one to believe in curses but that show has had some awful luck with its actors passing away.

    Richard Biggs - played the Doctor - died age 44

    Andreas Katsulas - played Ambassador G'Kar(ja-car) - died age 59

    Jeff Conaway - played security chief - died age 60

    Michael O'Hare - played the cmdr 1st season - died age 60

    Sad news indeed,
    man i really liked him as Jeffrey Sinclair in B5.

    i had a funny feeling for some time that something happened to Michael O'Hare, so sorry to hear he has passed away after a heart attack. i liked his acting on B5 and the few episodes later on in the series to complete the Minbari and their culture (anyone wants to know, buy the series and learn the mystery, you won't be disappointed).

    Rest in peace.
