Television actor Morgan Stevens, who appeared on some iconic shows, died at his home on Wednesday… TMZ has learned.
A source close to Stevens said he had not been seen or heard from for a few days, which was when a neighbor called authorities for a checkup. Police confirmed with TMZ…Stevens was found in his kitchen, where he was pronounced dead. They do not suspect foul play and he most likely died of natural causes.
Morgan was best known for his work on the show “Fame,” in which he played Professor David Reardon for two seasons. He was also a recurring character on “Melrose Place” and “A Year in the Life”. He made guest appearances on various shows including “Murder, She Wrote”, “One Day at a Time” and “Murder One”, with “Walker, Texas Ranger” being his final television appearance.
In the 90s, Stevens suffered alleged police brutality when he was arrested for an alleged DUI. He claimed that after 90 minutes of waiting in a jail cell, he refused to return the shirt given to him, that is when two jailers kicked him and the beat more than two dozen times.
Stevens left prison with a broken nose, fractured cheek, dislocated jaw, and consequential nerve damage. He then sued and an out-of-court settlement was reached.
Morgan was 70 years old.
