The Tragic Death Of Ed Asner
Ed Asner was born in Kansas City, Missouri, on November 15, 1929, according to Biography, and before he became famous for his onscreen work, Asner served in the U.S. Army's Signal Corps in the 1950s. When he left the military, he went back to his roots. Asner had gotten involved in acting while at the University of Chicago, and ended up in New York where he found jobs in theater before landing the role of Lou Grant on the popular '70s comedy, "The Mary Tyler Moore Show."
"I hit a dry spell when I first started out," Asner told Closer Weekly in 2019 while opening up about his career. However, he refused to give up, which is why, in his later days, he said with a laugh, "I've just been around too long for people to avoid me."
That may have been the reason why Asner was still working when he was older — he told Closer Weekly, "Well, I've got to pay off my bills" — but it probably also had to do with his dedication to his craft. When the star offered advice during an interview with the Television Academy Foundation, he explained the key to acting, saying, "Concentrate on the basics ... You keep telling yourself 'stop being a schmuck' ... And you concentrate ... You've got to rely on the basics." The basics certainly served him well.
