Director, Actor Born: August 13, 1944 in Los Angeles, CA Biography:"Kevin Tighe"'s, whose given name was Kevin Fishburn, was a psychology major at Cal State when he switched his major to Theatre at USC. Most TV viewers were introduced to Tighe in the role of paramedic Roy DeSoto on the adventure series "Emergency!," which ran from 1972 through 1977. After "Emergency!" folded, Tighe worked on Broadway and in film supporting roles. He was "rediscovered" by filmmaker "John Sayles", who cast Tighe in such plum parts as Hickey in "Matewan" (1987) and gambler Sport Sullivan in "Eight Men Out" (1988). Specializing in gritty authority roles in the last decade, Kevin Tighe was reunited with his "Emergency" co-star "Randolph Mantooth" in the 1991 thriller "Spy Games". ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
