In the seventies he got to work with Pam Grier which I am sure was an outa sight experience. Can ya dig it? RIP
If you’re into action films, I highly recommend John Carpenter’s “Assault on Precinct 13.” Austin was very good along side Darwin Joston as Napoleon Wilson who was always asking people if they had a cigarette on them. RIP Mr.Stoker.
