Actor Matthew Faber Dead at forty seven

Actor Matthew Faber — who starred in a number of cult classic films in the ’90s — has died … TMZ has learned.

Faber was found deceased Saturday inside his Van Nuys, CA apartment — this after his family hadn’t heard from him in some days and asked the landlord to his building to open up his unit … according to Matt’s brother, Mark. His death appears to be natural, we’re told.

Mark tells TMZ, “A beautiful man. Incredibly talented. Wise beyond his years, quick-witted. Abundantly aware. He could really pay attention more than most. He had such incredible focus and ability to sustain concentration — brilliant man, very aware, very smart.”
