Boardwalk Empire comes to the Irish Rivera, Rockapoca in Queens

I was an extra in the HBO series Boardwalk Empire playing an Spanish American War Veteran. My days as a leading man are over - I am now the grisly old Veteran. I was too young to play a Civil War veteran and to old to play a DoughBoy soldier from World War 2. A little bit of Benjamen Button here.
