Daniel von Bargen, an accomplished stage actor who turned to movies and eventually TV -- most famously as "Mr. Kruger" on "Seinfeld" -- died Sunday in Montgomery, Ohio, according to Variety. He was 64.

"Mr. Kruger" was George Costanza's (Jason Alexander) excessively lackadaisical boss at Kruger Industrial Smoothing -- which haplessly attempted to "get the green stuff off the Statue of Liberty." He also played Commandant Spangler, the military veteran who oversaw the cadets at Marlin Academy, on the Fox sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle."
