Dammit, this really sucks. What a fabulous talent he was. To pull off drama and comedy so effortlessly is something you rarely see; his two biggest roles could not have been more different. Rest well, Mr. Braugher.

I didn't realize he was in Glory. What a great movie that was, and what a great actor he was. RIP

That was his breakout role and where I first noticed him. Pretty impressive considering his co-stars were Morgan Freeman, Denzel Washington and Mathew Broderick.

I'll always remember him for Captain Raymond Holt from Brooklyn 99.
