Tony-winning actor Robert Morse has passed away at the age of 90, we’ve learned this afternoon, the actor perhaps most known to this generation as Bert Cooper on “Mad Men.”
“My good pal Bobby Morse has passed away at age 90,” writer-producer Larry Karaszewski tweeted today. “A huge talent and a beautiful spirit. Sending love to his son Charlie & daughter Allyn. Had so much fun hanging with Bobby over the years — filming People v OJ & hosting so many screenings (How To Succeed, Loved One, That’s Life).”
Robert Morse won his first Tony award for How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and he later won a second Tony award for his role as Truman Capote in Tru (1989).
Throughout his career, Robert Morse was nominated for seven Primetime Emmy Awards, winning in 1993 for “American Playhouse: Tru.” His other Emmy nominations came courtesy of “That’s Life” and “Mad Men,” nominated a whopping five times for the latter series.
In the horror genre, Robert Morse played the iconic role of Grandpa Munster in the 1995 movie Here Come the Munsters, and he also appeared in two episodes of “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” along with episodes of “Night Gallery” and the ’80s version of “The Twilight Zone.” More recently, Morse played Dominick Dunne in the series “American Crime Story.”
