Henry Heinisch

Henry "Hank" Heinisch was born in Kenosha, Wisconsin in November, 1951. He received a Bachelors degree from the University of Wisconsin, majoring in Art. While there, he acquired an interest in acting which carried over into his post-college years. The son of witty and loving working-class parents, Heinisch was soon overcome by the acting bug, parlaying his interest along with his physical abilities and appearance into a number of character roles in such theatrical hits as "Bulldog Drummond" and "Dracula". He was selected for his role in "The Paint Job" some few weeks prior to learning he had pancreatic cancer. Sadly, the role of his life was his last. Heinisch died in the loving comfort of his family and friends in May of 1992.
