Orbach Tribute

All this month, the reruns of Law
and Order on TNT cable will fea-
ture episodes in which the late
Jerry Orbach co-starred. Orbach,
who died of
cancer in 2004,
would have been
?e,41
71 this month.
Virtually every-
one who knew
him described
him as a warm,
Jerry Orbach
wonderful man.
Orbach was
the son of a Jewish father and a
Polish Catholic mother, and while
he was raised in his mother's faith,
his life's journey embodied many
aspects of Jewish identity.

Parallel Paths

On Oct. 10, 2006, what would have
been Wall Street Journal reporter
Daniel Pearl's 43rd birthday, HBO
will debut the documentary The
Journalist and the Jihadi: The
Death of Daniel Pearl. Relatives, col-
leagues and friends will celebrate the
life of the impassioned humanist who
spent his career trying to promote
cross-cultural understanding but was
brutally slain in Pakistan by an Islamic
militant.
Narrated by Christine Amanpour,
the documentary tracks the paral-
lel lives of Pearl and his assassin,
Jihadi Omar Sheikh. Pearl was a Jew
who strove to give Westerners a more
nuanced understanding of the Middle
East; the other was a militant who
chose a deeply intolerant, violent path.
The Journalist and the Jihadi:
The Murder of Daniel Pearl debuts
8-9:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 10, on HBO.

broadcasts.

Orbach, a great musical actor,
spent most of his career in the
very Jewish theater milieu of
Broadway. He played a memorable
Jewish gangster in Woody Allen's
Crimes and Misdemeanors and was
terrific as the ultimate mentshy
Jewish father and doctor in the
film Dirty Dancing.
Sources tell me the actor
stopped being a practicing Catholic
long before his death and consid-
ered himself "a cultural Jew." In
1998, he appeared at a rally honor-
ing Israel's 50th anniversary, and
his nonsectarian funeral was held
at a Jewish funeral home. He was
buried, as is the Jewish custom, in
a plain coffin.
Since he was raised a Catholic,
it's doubtful any wing of Judaism
would consider Jerry Orbach
Jewish. But I don't think I am alone
in feeling, logically or illogically,
that he was somehow part of the
Jewish people.:_
