Sadly Robert Culp passed away yesterday in LA of an apparent heart attack after a fall outside of his home.

Robert Martin Culp was born on Aug. 16, 1930, in Oakland, Calif., and attended high school in Berkeley. He attended the College of the Pacific in Stockton, Calif.; Washington University in St Louis; San Francisco State College; and the drama school of the University of Washington, though he never earned a degree.

Culp was married five times. He is survived by his daughters, Samantha, who lives in China, and Rachel, of San Francisco; and his sons, Joseph, Joshua and Jason, all of Los Angeles.

He has been in 163 shows and movies throught his long career.
Full list can be seen here.




CBM Insert: We had an opportunity to interview Robert at Comic-Con 2008. He was a great guy. Really a sad day.

RemiMartini - he played the FBI agent in Greatest American Hero. It was a TV show in the early 80's about a high school teacher that turns into a superhero. He gains "powers" after running into Aliens who gave him some kind of "supersuit". It was a really cool show when I was younger and I wish they would do a reboot of this, just like they did with "V". Well, except this reboot would have to be "good".
