Abe Vigoda - Dead or Alive?

Abe Vigoda, of Godfather, Barney Miller, and Fish fame (?) is still alive.

So... he's not dead.

Abe Vigoda found out he was dead in 1982. He was doing a play in Calgary, Alberta, while a People magazine writer visited the "Barney Miller" wrap party in Los Angeles, California.
"The Godfather" was Abe Vigoda's first film -- and more than 35 years later, he's still around to enjoy it.
"Somehow it mentioned in the article that 'the late Abe Vigoda' was not [there]," Vigoda recalls.
The error was corrected, but the damage had been done.
"I'm still quite [involved]," he says.
