Aside from his 1987 appearance as Starkweather in Paul Verhoeven's sci-fi drama Robocop, venerable African-American actor Tyrees Allen spent many years enduring supporting roles in lackluster films, such as the 1980 teen-oriented military farce Up the Academy, the 1986 comedy-fantasy The Dirt Bike Kid, and the 1991 exploitationer Touch and Die. A series of guest turns (as various characters) on the Paul Reiser sitcom Mad About You and the blockbuster drama Law & Order followed during the mid-'90s, and helped Allen's career immensely. In 2007, the actor played Detective Warren Jacobi in the mystery series Women's Murder Club. Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
