The Untold Truth Of John Mahoney

Veteran stage actor and sitcom star John Mahoney passed away on February 4, 2018. For 11 years, he played Martin Crane, the irascible father of Frasier and Niles Crane on NBC's hit Cheers spin off, Frasier. It was a completely against-type role for the congenial British actor, who was once described by a neighbor as "a delight." The role also turned Mahoney into an instant star, which afforded him the luxury of pursuing his lifelong passion, theater. But he actually didn't set foot on a professional stage until he was almost 40. So what was he doing all those years before his Frasier fame, and how did the sitcom's triumph affect his left afterwards? This is the untold truth of John Mahoney.

John Mahoney

A versatile and prolific character thespian of stage, production and television, John Mahoney made a living playing gruff, hardscrabble, blue collar characters before making himself a domestic name as Marty Crane on the hit sitcom "Frasier" (NBC, 1993-2004). Prior to his Emmy-nominated success on the show, Mahoney had a late and rather unorthodox entry into professional acting after going through an early midlife crisis in his 30s. He dropped his job as a magazine editor and began taking acting classes in Chicago, which instantly led to making his professional debut in David Mamet's "The Water Engine" (1977).

Mahoney rapidly developed as a strong and highly-sought character performer who specialized in cranky authority figures. Eventually, he triumphed on stages in Fresh York, which led to prominent movie roles in "Say Anything" (1989) and "Barton Fink" (1991). But a fortuitous guest shot on "Cheers" (NBC, 1982-1993) led to a friendship with Kelsey Grammer and the role on "Frasier" that turned him into star, giving Mahoney ample opportunity to display his talents in a wide variety of film and television projects for the rest of his career.
