Willie Gardon Obituary – Death: Actor Willie Gardon, best known for his role on the “Sex and the City” series and films, has passed away. He was 57 years old. He had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but a cause of death has not been confirmed.
“I used to see Willie Garson at LA Fitness in Hollywood regularly, and couldn’t believe I was working out next to Stanford Blatch. RIP to an on-screen legend.”
“This news is so sad. I loved his work, such a fantastic character actor. Rest In Peace, Willie Garson. Thank you for your stories xo”
Gardon was born in New Jersey. He began to train as an actor at the age of 13. He studied at Wesleyan University. His first Hollywood appearance was as a guest on television shows such as “Cheers” and “Family Ties.”
He also appeared on USA Network’s “White Collar,” ABC’s “NYPD Blue,” and CBS’s “Hawaii Five-0.” and most recently scheduled to appear in the series reboot, “And Just Like That,” which will premiere on HBO Max later this year.
I am so sad to read this news this morning. Stanford Blatch is undoubtedly one of my favorite tv show characters who was played so well by Willie Garson. What a loss. Rest In Peace.

Willie Garson did three episodes of Stargate SG-1 and, while his first episode was very funny, 2 and 3 were absolute masterpieces of meta-humor. And in a world of stock characters, Mozzie was a truly original take on the gentleman scoundrel. Incredible talent gone too soon.
