This one's for you old timers out there. Bit before my time (by about a generation ).
Hugh O'Brian, star of The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp (1955-1961) died peacefully at home this weekend at the age of 91.
Emmy nominated for "best continuing performance" for his part on the show in 1957.
He also played the last character ever to be killed on screen by a John Wayne character in The Shootist.
