He began his acting career late in life, at the age of 79, when he starred in a 2001 episode of Will & Grace. He went on to perform a variety of character roles in films and on television. As an entrepreneur, he operated the Music Man Murray record store in Los Angeles for more than 50 years.[1] CareerHe acted in other television shows, such as Modern Family, The Sarah Silverman Program, Mad Men, Raising Hope, House, and Parks and Recreation.[2] He also appeared in films, such as I Love You, Man (2009), The Incredible Burt Wonderstone (2013), and The Hangover (2009), where he played Felix, an elderly man who fully disrobes in one scene.[2] Personal lifeGershenz was born in New York City on May 12, 1922, and raised in a Jewish household. An avid vinyl record collector, at the age of 16, he began collecting records, which turned into a $1.5 million stockpile of over 300,000 records for his shop located in West Adams, Los Angeles, California.[2] Gershenz was quoted as saying, "You never stop buying because you never know what someone is going to want."[2] His desire to sell his collection became the subject of a 2011 documentary film, titled Music Man Murray, after his nickname and the name of his store.[2] Presumably as a direct result of worldwide festival audiences' exposure to the film, in June 2013, he sold the entire collection to a buyer either from New York City or Brazil, sources vary on this detail and neither he nor the family have ever publicly released this information. DeathGershenz died of a heart attack on August 28, 2013, aged 91, in Los Angeles.[2] References1. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/08/arts/music/murray-gershenz-record-store-owner-and-character-actor-dies-at-91.html?ref=obituaries|title=Murray Gershenz, Record Store Owner and Character Actor, Dies at 91|author=William Yardley|work=The New York Times|date=September 7, 2013}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|url=http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/posts/la-et-ms-music-man-murray-dies-20130829,0,6240789.story|title=Remembering 'Music Man Murray': Murray Gershenz dies at 91|last=Kennedy|first=Gerrick D.|date=August 29, 2013|work=Los Angeles Times|accessdate=August 29, 2013}} External links
