Lt. Manny Quinlan (played by Henry Darrow) was Harry Orwell's (David Janssen) police contact in the TV show Harry O which ran 1974-1976. From the site mentioned above: Karen Ann Quinlan was the first modern icon of the right-to-die debate. The 21-year-old Quinlan collapsed after swallowing alcohol and tranquilizers at a party in 1975. Doctors saved her life, but she suffered brain damage and lapsed into a persistent vegetative state. Her family waged a much-publicized legal battle for the right to remove her life support machinery. They succeeded, but in a final twist Quinlan kept breathing after the respirator was unplugged. She remained in a coma for almost 10 years in a New Jersey nursing home until her 1985 death. http://www.who2.com/karenannquinlan.html Jul 28 02, 7:13 PM
