Biography
Gerrit Graham (November 27, 1949 — September 15, 2026) was an American actor and songwriter. He had appeared in such films as Used Cars, TerrorVision, National Lampoon's Class Reunion, and Greetings, where he worked with Brian De Palma for the first time. He would again work with DePalma on Hi, Mom and Home Movies, as well as The Phantom of the Paradise, where he played Beef, the Alice Cooper-inspired rock star.
He has also appeared in two different roles on the Star Trek television series; as the Hunter of Tosk on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and as a member of the Q Continuum (adopting the name Quinn) in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Death Wish."
He was also the voice of Franklin Sherman in the animated series The Critic and has written songs with Bob Weir of Ratdog.
