Charles "Charlie" Dierkop (born September 11, 1936 in La Crosse, Wisconsin) is a film and television character actor. He attended Aquinas High School in La Crosse. His short, muscular stature and interesting nose give him the look of a classic Dick Tracy gangster. (In fact, he was cast in two George Roy Hill films, and played an outlaw both times -- as 'Flat Nose Curry' in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" he was a member of the Hole-in-the-Wall Gang, and as 'Floyd' in "The Sting", he acted as a bodyguard to Robert Shaw's New York banker/gangster, Doyle Lonnegan.) He is, however, best known for his work in the Police Woman television series between 1974 and 1978.
