NEW YORK (AP) — Michael McGrath, a Broadway character actor who shined in zany, feel-good musicals and won a Tony Award for “Nice Work If You Can Get It,” has died.
McGrath died Thursday at his home in Bloomfield, New Jersey, said his publicist, Lisa Goldberg.
“Michael McGrath was as wonderful offstage as he was on,” wrote Michael Urie in tribute.
The actor also moves with the confidence of a born hoofer, particularly in his ″'The God-Why-Don’t-You-Love-Me Blues.
'″He is survived by his wife of 30 years, actor Toni Di Buono and a daughter, actor Katie Claire McGrath.
