Claude Earl Jones (April 29, 1933 — November 25, 2019) was an American feature film and TV character actor.

Jones played the tyrannical Lacerta in the Original Series episode "The Lost Warrior."

Born on April 29, 1933, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Jones was raised in Phoenix. At Phoenix Union High School, he got his first acting job after he went to a casting session to support a friend. He then studied the craft at Phoenix College and the Pasadena Playhouse around a stint in the U.S. Army.

After earning his master's degree in theater from Cal State Los Angeles in 1966, Jones taught theater at Ganesha High School in Pomona, California, from 1969-72. He often remarked his work at the school was among the most important he ever did.

His acting résumé included the films Thunder and Lightning (1977), Evilspeak (1981), Impulse (1984), No Man's Land (1987) and Cherry 2000 (1987) Jones has had roles in many classic 1970's, 1980's and 1990's TV shows in both dramatic and comedic portrayals, including Kojak, the mini-series Centennial, Diff'rent Strokes, WKRP in Cincinnati, The A-Team (which starred Original Series star Dirk Benedict), Quantum Leap (starring Re-imagined Series guest star Dean Stockwell) and Seinfeld, Dallas, Simon & Simon, Who's the Boss?, 21 Jump Street and the Griffith-starring Matlock.

Jones also wrote four books: Specially Not No Chocolate, a collection of short stories about his childhood; Hello Devil, Welcome to Hell, about his work on Inherit the Wind; The Real Ones Learn It Somewhere, about his education and teaching experiences; and I'd Drink It, a novel.

In addition to his wife, survivors include his sons, Steve and Tawn; his daughter, Julie; and his stepdaughter, Beth. Donations in his memory can be made to the Theatrical Workforce Development Program at the Roundabout Theatre Company.

Diane Jones is an American background performer who portrayed Adama's wife Ila in portraiture in the Original Series' "Saga of a Star World", and later as a bar maiden on Equellus in the Original Series' "The Lost Warrior". Both performances were uncredited and were identified through computer-aided facial recognition.

Career

Jones' first known acting credit is as Patricia in The Psycho Lover (1970), a sexploitation crime film written and directed by Robert Vincent O'Neil. The character Patricia — referred to in the film as "the one with the cat" — is a lesbian sculptor killed at her home by Marco Everson (Frank Cuva), a psychotic patient hypnotized by his psychiatrist into committing murder.

In January 1974, Jones appears uncredited in two productions within five days of each other. She is listed as an observer at a crime scene in the Kojak episode "Last Rites for a Dead Priest" (Season 1, Episode 12, January 23, 1974) and five days later as a show spectator in the The Magician episode "The Illusion of the Stainless Steel Lady" (Season 1, Episode 13, January 28, 1974). Later that year she appears uncredited as a nurse in The Terminal Man (1974), a science-fiction film directed by Mike Hodges and adapted from the novel by Michael Crichton, starring George Segal and Joan Hackett.

Jones also appears uncredited as Miss Alabama in the The Bionic Woman Season 1 episode "Bionic Beauty" (March 17, 1976), in which Jaime Sommers (Lindsay Wagner) goes undercover as a beauty pageant contestant.

Her two appearances in Battlestar Galactica came in 1978. In "Saga of a Star World," she appears in photographs of Ila that Adama examines. In "The Lost Warrior," she is seen as an unnamed bar maiden on Equellus. Both roles were uncredited, with both identifications made through computer-aided facial recognition.
