“Chris was an extraordinary man who deeply loved and respected his profession with great old fashion manners, self deprecating humor and the music of words,” his longtime friend and manager Lou Pitt told the publication. “He was a National Treasure who deeply relished his Canadian roots. Through his art and humanity, he touched all of our hearts and his legendary life will endure for all generations to come. He will forever be with us.”
His first television role came in 1953, according to IMDB.
In far more than just a musical, Plummer won an Academy Award, two Tonys and two Emmys during his career. He was nominated for a Grammy in 1986.
