"M*A*S*H" star Allan Arbus has passed away at the age of 95. The actor died on Friday at his Los Angeles home, according to the New York Times.
Born in New York, Arbus became a photographer for the U.S. Army and teamed up with his future wife, Diane Arbus (née Nemerov), to shoot advertising spreads for magazines such as Vogue and Glamour.
After the couple divorced in 1969, Arbus embarked on a career in entertainment, landing the lead role in Robert Downey Sr.'s cult classic "Greaser's Palace." Arbus then starred alongside Bette Davis in "Scream, Pretty Peggy," before finding fame as the sarcastic psychiatrist Major Sidney Freedman on the hit TV series "M*A*S*H."
His other credits include appearances on "Starsky and Hutch," "Law & Order" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm."
Arbus is survived by his wife Mariclare Costello.
