Earl Holliman – who was best known for his roles in various Western television shows and films, including “The Twilight Zone,” “Police Woman,” and “The Rainmaker” – has died. He was 96. 

According to his obituary, the legendary actor died in Studio City, California on Nov. 25. His partner Craig Curtis announced his death to Variety. 

“[Earl was] a gracious, kind confidant, a consummate host, a man whose indefatigable positivity was evergreen and powered by a 1000-watt smile, an easy charm and infectious goodwill. A joy and a privilege to spend time with, he was even-keeled and compassionate, possessing a deep sensitivity and mischievous sense of humor which were belied by his stoically handsome countenance.”

A representative for Holliman did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
