Denis Leroy Arndt

I became an admirer of his work over many seasons at OSF Ashland. One stand out performance was his Theodore "Hickey" Hickman in "The Iceman Cometh." A brilliant performance.

so sorry to read about mr arndt's passing. condolences to his precious family. Godspeed! Scott

I was a fan of Mr. Arndt, seeing him first when I visited the Shakespearean festival in Ashland. At this moment, I am watching a rerun of The Practice, and he is portraying an attorney. Since the first time I saw him perform, I have been a fan of his. And now the world is diminished with his passing.

I was a regular attendee at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in the 1970s and early 1980s, and one of the greatest pleasures was to watch Denis Arndt weave his magic on stage. I will never forget his performances as Jack Rover in "Wild Oats" and Iago in "Othello". He was a gift to every theater audience that had the privilege of being in his presence. I share your sorrow at the loss of this amazingly gifted man.

A VERY FUNNY SWEET GENTLEMAN WHO MADE IT A POINT TO COME THROUGH MY CHECKSTAND AT SAFEWAY IN ASHLAND TO SHARE A JOKE OR 2 WITH ME... RIP

I was hoping to see Denny at a Rogers High reunion reunion. He was Tom Sawyer in our play and I was the sheriff. He was so good. Sorry that he has exited the stage

He was THE favorite of my husband's and mine for years at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland. I bawled like a baby watching him in A Moon for the Misbegotten in the Black Swan Theatre. Superior in Shakespeare productions. We were always thrilled to see him pop up in TV and film roles. I didn't know he flew helos in Nam.
