Larry Drake, standing at an imposing 6ft 3 (190.5 cm), was an American actor whose towering height and robust build defined his memorable screen presence.
Best known for his two Emmy-winning portrayals of the gentle giant Benny Stulwicz on L.A. Law, Drake's massive frame—as he quipped about playing similar roles like Lenny, 'for a guy my size (6-foot-3, 230 pounds)'—brought authenticity and pathos to characters blending physical power with vulnerability.
His film roles in Darkman and Dark Night of the Scarecrow further showcased how his 6ft 3 stature amplified his commanding yet nuanced performances.
