Abraham "Abe" Vigoda (February 24, 1921 - January 26, 2016) was an American movie and television actor. Vigoda was well known for his portrayal of Sal Tessio in The Godfather, and for his portrayal of Detective Sgt. Phil Fish on the sitcom television series Barney Miller from 1975–1977 and on its spin-off show Fish that aired from February 1977 to June 1978 on ABC.
