Though the versatile actor Len Cariou's career is full of great Shakespearean performances and thrilling turns in contemporary dramas, Broadway fans will always remember him as the elegant, but sexually frustrated Frederik Egerman in A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC and, of course, as the ferocious Demon Barber of Fleet Street in SWEENEY TODD, for which he won a Tony Award.

But now television audiences are enjoying watching the master at work as retired NYPD Police Commissioner Henry Reagan in the CBS drama series "Blue Bloods."

Charitybuzz is hosting a new online auction for two people to enjoy either a meet and greet or dinner with the legendary Len Cariou. The package also includes "Blue Bloods" seasons 1-5 on DVD and 3 limited print hats for production crew only.

BLUE BLOODS is a drama about a multi-generational family of cops dedicated to New York City law enforcement. Frank Reagan is the New York Police Commissioner, and heads both the police force and the Reagan brood. He runs his department as diplomatically as he runs his family, even when dealing with the politics that plagued his unapologetically bold father, Henry, during his stint as Chief. A source of pride and concern for Frank is his eldest son, Danny, a seasoned detective, family man and Iraq War vet who, on occasion, uses dubious tactics to solve cases with his partner, Detective Maria Baez. The Reagan women in THE FAMILY include Erin, a N.Y. Assistant D.A., who also serves as the legal compass for her siblings and father, as well as a single parent to her teenage daughter Nicky, and Linda, Danny's supportive wife. Jamie is the youngest Reagan, a Harvard Law graduate and the family's "golden boy." Unable to deny THE FAMILY tradition, Jamie decided to give up a lucrative future in law and follow in THE FAMILY footsteps as a cop. He's found a friend and ally in Eddie, his young and eager female partner, who keeps him on his toes, but has very different reasons than the Reagans for joining the police force.
