Tim Curry, a character actor who created a gallery of fascinating and highly eccentric villains in both theater and film, has passed away. He was known for his roles as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the arrogant concierge in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. He was 80 years old. Curry, who suffered a stroke in 2012 that left him in a wheelchair, died Wednesday at his home in Los Angeles, according to his long-time manager and friend, Marcia Hurwitz. The cause of death has not been reported. Known for his sharp wit, a malleable face, and his talent for voices, Curry received three Tony nominations—for 'Spamalot,' 'My Favorite Year,' and 'Amadeus'—and an Emmy nomination in 1994. 'I like to explore the more curious corners of the human mind and behavior, partly because they are a bit more interesting,' Curry told The Associated Press in 1993.
