Peter Falk, TV's rumpled Columbo, has died

By ANTHONY MCCARTNEY, AP Entertainment Writer – 3 mins ago

LOS ANGELES – Peter Falk, the stage and movie actor who became identified as the squinty, rumpled detective in "Columbo," which spanned 30 years in primetime television and established one of the most iconic characters in police work, has died. He was 83.

Falk died Thursday in his Beverly Hills home, according to a statement released Friday by family friend Larry Larson.

In a court document filed in December 2008, Falk's daughter Catherine Falk said he was suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

Just saw this. Love Columbo. I liked it way better than McMillan and Wife.
 
Columbo was his signature role, but he had so many other great roles. In particular I think of him in The Inlaws, and though he isn't thought of as much for serious roles, he was outstanding in Undisputed as well.
