Statement says he was bipolar. Wonder if it was suicide. That sucks. He was really part of an iconic movie in Revenge of the Nerds.

His family released a statement saying that it was a suicide, and that his struggles with bipolar disorder had something to do with it. I didn't see him in many of his other roles, but I'll always remember him as Lewis Skolnick from Revenge of the Nerds, the hero of bullied underdog outcasts everywhere. He was an 80s icon in that role. RIP.
