Actor's Soup Nazi Pays Off

Did you know the actor who portrayed the Soup Nazi character on "Seinfeld" wrote a book?

There's also an interesting story from the Hollywood Reporter about actor Larry Thomas, who has worked steadily since landing the memorable role on the hit NBC television show.

Thomas has been working on many films and television shows through the years.

What his story shows is that his perseverance paid off.  He was a bail bondsman when he auditioned.  It's a great story.

There's a real Original Soup Man in New York City that inspired the character.  Thomas recently spoke with Fox News about the Original Soup Man.

Fortunately, the Soup Nazi character lives on from 26 years ago... in the form of reruns.  Enjoy!

And, of course, the end of the Soup Nazi...
