Columbo' Star Peter Falk Dies at 83

ctor Peter Falk, who was best known for his role in the TV series "Columbo" has died, according to a statement released by his family. He was 83.

"Falk died peacefully at his Beverly Hills home in the evening of June 23, 2011," according to the statement. Falk is survived by his wife, Shera, of 34 years and two daughters from a previous marriage.

The actor suffered from advanced dementia that set on after a series of dental operations in 2007. In 2009, his wife, Shera, and daughter, Catherine, engaged in a legal tug-of-war over who should be in charge of his personal affairs; a judge ruled that Shera would retain control.

Falk also found success on the big screen. He was nominated for Oscars for his roles in 1960's "Murder, Inc." and 1961's "Pocketful of Miracles."
