    In addition to her role on 227, Hall also played Olivia, Gordon’s younger sister’ on Sesame Street.? She also had guest roles on shows such as “Ally McBeal”, “Friends” and “A Different World”.

    They married — both on the set, and in real life — and they had two children. Keven went on to play the imposing title character in Predator. Predator 2 was released December 1990 and in April 1991, he died of AIDS, which he contracted through a contaminated blood transfusion given to him after a major automobile accident a few months prior to that date.
