John Hancock (March 4, 1941 – October 12, 1992) was an American film and television actor.
Born in Hazen, Arkansas, Hancock is possibly best remembered for his role as "Scotty" in the ABC miniseries Roots: The Next Generations.[1] His large size and distinctive bass voice allowed him to establish a niche playing authority figures, and he was often cast as a minister, judge, or high-ranking military officer.[1]
Hancock also made recurring appearances in several television shows during his career, including Knots Landing, Family Ties, Cop Rock, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Amen, Midnight Caller, Pacific Station, and L.A. Law.[2] He was working on the CBS show Love & War as the bartender "Ike Johnson" in 1992, when he died of a heart attack at his home in Los Angeles.[3]
