Andrew Robinson

Andrew Jordt Robinson (born 14 February 1942 in New York City, USA) is an American actor works works predominantly in supporting roles on television and in low-budget films. I know him best for his portrayals of the serial killer Scorpio in Dirty Harry (1971), Detective Monte in Cobra (1986), Larry Cotton in Hellraiser (1987), Sergeant Botnick in Child's Play 3 (1991), and Elim Garak in the television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993–99).

Andrew signed my Hellraiser DVD sleeve when he appeared at Destination Star Trek in Birmingham in October 2018. I did not attend this convention but used the Showmasters pre-order service. I used the same service to purchase the Dirty Harry 8x10 photo when Andrew appeared at London Comic Con in November 2021.
