Reg Cathey — who appeared on shows like “The Wire” and “House of Cards” — has died. He was 59.
“The Wire” creator David Simon announced his passing on Twitter, writing, “Not only a fine, masterful actor — but simply one of the most delightful human beings with whom I ever shared some long days on set.

Cathey won an Emmy for outstanding guest actor in a drama series in 2015 for his work as Freddy on “House of Cards.” On “The Wire,” he played campaign manager Norman Wilson.
