Need help with an actor - Vice?

Need help with an actor, pls.

This guy, I’m pretty sure was in Miami Vice. He was balding but with big curly hair, lanky white guy, and usually played a professor, chemist, or other teacher. I picture him hanging out in a white lab coat. He passed away within the last five years. He had a nasal voice, and a slightly disfigured nose like it had been broken before. Pretty tall, a little bit creepy. Had numerous supporting roles in movies in the 80s and I’m almost sure he was on Vice at least once like I said before. However, he was not the chemist in that certain episode where some guy stumbled onto a super intoxicating yet deadly new drug.

Thanks for any help, detectives.

I can’t explain it, but I really like this guy. Also - I never got around to watching Dorf on golf with Tim Conway and him, but I remember the infomercials and now I’m highly tempted to. And yes, he was on Vice. How did you ever figure out who this guy was, way impressed. I’m guessing it was your Vice knowledge.

It was easy. He had a one of a kind face and your description sounded like him.

I'll always remember Schiavelli in "Fast Times At Ridgemont High" as the ghoulish biology teacher,  his appearance in "The X-Files" episode "Humbug"  and way back he was one of the patients in "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest"

FM, nice to hear from you! In case you didn’t know V.S. also did a teacher role in Better Off Dead.

Not to mention, Cy Curnin from my favorite band The Fixx did the ending credits song.
