About Richard Moll

Lived 1943 – 2023 (aged 80). Richard Moll was an American film actor, television actor, voice actor, actor and dub actor.

Charles Richard Moll (January 13, 1943 – October 26, 2023) was an American actor known for playing Aristotle Nostradamus "Bull" Shannon, a bailiff on the NBC sitcom Night Court from 1984 to 1992. Moll also voiced Harvey Dent/Two-Face in the DC Animated Universe series Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures, and briefly reprised the role in the Batman: The Brave and the Bold episode "Chill of the Night!" where he also voiced the character Lew Moxon.

Early life Charles Richard Moll was born January 13, 1943, in Pasadena, California, the son of Violet Anita (née Grill), a nurse, and Harry Findley Moll, a lawyer. He was tall early in his life, reaching by age 12, and kept growing until he was about tall. As a child, he and his family would often visit Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Career In the 1977 film Brigham, Moll (credited as Charles Moll) appeared as Joseph Smith, founder of the Latter Day Saint movement. Moll would go on to often portray hulking or imposing characters due to his height and deep voice. In 1979, Moll played the part of Eugene, a gangster on the television series Happy Days in the episode "Fonzie's Funeral". In 1981, Moll co-starred with Jan-Michael Vincent and Kim Basinger in the film Hard Country, and he also played the Abominable Snowman in the comedy feature film Caveman. The same year, he had a small part in the Mork & Mindy episode "Alienation", where he appeared with future fellow Night Court cast member John Larroquette. In 1982, he played the sorcerer Xusia in The Sword and the Sorcerer. He also used the Bull persona in commercials for the Washington Lottery.

Voiceover work Moll can be heard in many animated productions, often as a villain with a deep, growling voice. He voiced Norman in Mighty Max and Two-Face in Batman: The Animated Series.

Moll was an avid bird watcher who spent his retirement in Big Bear Lake, California.
