Biography: Aficionados of the late night talk show Late Night With Conan O'Brien will recognize William Preston for playing Carl "Oldy" Olsen on over 100 shows. Shortly after his death, the show dedicated Preston's last segment, in which he spoofed the running of the bulls in Pamplona, to the actor's memory. Before becoming an actor, he earned a bachelor's and a master's degree from Penn State University, then worked as a bookkeeper for a Philadelphia trucking company. |
