Biography:"Duane Jones" spent much of his career actively promoting and participating in African-American theater companies as an actor and a director. The former English professor also directed the Maguire Theater at the Old-Westbury campus of New York State University and served as artistic director at the Richard Allen Center in NYC. As an actor, many will best remember "Jones" as the ill-fated hero in "George Romero"'s "Night of the Living Dead" (1968) and as an anthropologist-turned-vampire in "Ganja and Hess" (1973). "Jones" made his final film appearance in the 1989 horror feature "To Die For". ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
