Actor Willie Garson died yesterday at the age of 57. Best known as Carrie’s (Sarah Jessica Parker) GBF, Stanford Blatch, his character was a contributing part of the ensemble cast that made “Sex and the City” such a success. I got to meet him in 2003 when he introduced the sneak preview for Season 6, episode 1, “To Market, to Market” at the La Jolla Contemporary Museum of Art. It was a wonderful evening and he was very easy to talk to, and not at all like the character he portrayed. From cast member Cynthia Nixon (Miranda):
We all loved him and adored working with him. He was endlessly funny on-screen and and in real life. He was a source of light, friendship and show business lore. He was a consummate professional — always.
