Landesberg is credited with the quote "Honesty is the best policy, but insanity is a better defense."[2]Death
Landesberg died from colon cancer on December 20, 2010, aged 74. Initial reports of Mr. Landesberg’s death, relying on numerous biographical sources, said he was 65.[3] He is survived by his widow Nancy Ross Landesberg and a daughter.In acknowledging that he was actually nine years older, his daughter Elizabeth said he had provided varying birth dates over the years. "He got kind of a late start in show business," she explained, "so he tried to straddle the generations. He fooled the whole world. People were surprised to think he was even 65."[4]
