Bruno Kirby, a veteran character actor who co-starred in "When Harry Met Sally,” "City Slickers” and many other films, has died at age 57, his wife said Tuesday. Kirby died Monday in Los Angeles from complications related to leukemia, according to a statement from his wife, Lynn Sellers. He had recently been diagnosed with the disease. "We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support we have received from Bruno’s fans and colleagues who have admired and respected his work over the past 30 years,” his wife said. Kirby was perhaps best known for his role opposite Billy Crystal in "When Harry Met Sally.”
