I'm very sad to learn that Saginaw Grant has died.

Saginaw was a Korean War veteran, a pow wow dancer and an actor who appeared in 'Breaking Bad', 'Veep' and many films.

I was fortunate to be seated at a table with Saginaw, at First Americans in the Arts award dinner, in Los Angeles. He was a kind and lovely man. He now joins Floyd Red Crow Westerman, Steve Reevis, Tim and Will Sampson, Russell Means, Jimmy Herman, and so many other amazing Native American actors at that celestial gathering.

He sounds like he was a wonderful man, and you were fortunate to have known him on this mortal plane. He now belongs to the ages.
