By “Bad” Brad Berkwitt

Emmy Award-winning actor Robert Guillaume, best known as the title character in the TV sitcom “Benson,” died Tuesday. He was 89.

His wife Donna Brown Guillaume told the Associated Press he died at their Los Angeles home of complications of prostate cancer. Guillaume was a beloved TV star in the middle to late 70’s through the middle 80’s and always turned in great performances. He won Emmys both for “Soap” (as supporting actor) and “Benson” (as lead actor).

NewzBreaker extends our condolences to the Guillaume Family in their time of grief.
