I never heard of him.

Well, I have heard of him although I must admit I haven't watched a lot of the stuff he's been in.  Still, my condolences to his family and friends.  May he rest in peace.

'I Spy' was a great show. I believe that Culp was also responsible for giving Bill Cosby his big break. He was one of the very few black men to have a leading role in a very popular TV series.

He did a cameo on The Cobsy Show years ago.  I am sorry for his family.
