The Irishman<\/a>.<\/p>\nThe actor was best known for his role as \u2018Beansie\u2019 Gaeta in the acclaimed crime drama The Sopranos on HBO.<\/p>\n
More recently he starred as Whispers DiTullio in Martin Scorsese\u2019s Netflix film The Irishman, and played Alfonse Simone in American Hustle and Randy in Silver Linings Playbook.<\/p>\n
His fellow Sopranos star Michael Imperioli confirmed the actor\u2019s death in a post on Instagram: \u201cOur friend and colleague Paul Herman has passed away. Paulie was just a great dude.<\/p>\n
\u201cA first-class storyteller and raconteur and one hell of an actor. Goodfellas, Once Upon a Time in America, The Irishman, and of course The Sopranos are some highlights.<\/p>\n
\u201cPaulie lived around the corner from me the last few years and I am glad we got to spend some time together before he left us.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll miss him. Lots of love to his family, friends, and community of actors and filmmakers.\u201d<\/p>\n
