Hollywood mourns a legend! Tom Bower, the revered actor who captivated audiences for decades, has passed away at 86. More than just a star, Bower’s legacy extends beyond the screen. Founding the Boston Repertory Theater and sharing scenes with icons like Al Pacino, his influence on acting remains undeniable.<\/p>\n

\n

Veteran actor Tom Bower, famously known for his role as Dr. Curtis Willard on the 1970s historical drama “The Waltons,” has passed away at the age of 86. His sister-in-law, Mary Miller, confirmed that the actor died peacefully in his sleep at his Los Angeles home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Reflecting on his life<\/a>, his representative, Marsha McManus, highlighted the most important things to Tom. He mentioned his wife, Ursula Bower, his illustrious acting career, and his unwavering commitment to fairness and support for fellow actors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Tom strongly advocated for SAG-AFTRA(Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists), passionately believing in fair representation for all actors. The union expressed their heartfelt condolences on their official X page.<\/p>\n

\n

The message read<\/a>, “We are saddened to learn of #TomBower’s passing. A working actor for 50 years & best remembered for ‘The Waltons.’ He served his union as a SAG Nat’l Board member from ’95\u2013’02, on many committees & co-created @SAGindie. #RIP.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
