LOS ANGELES TIMES: Robert Culp, the veteran actor best known for starring with Bill Cosby in the classic 1960s espionage-adventure series “I Spy” and for playing Bob in the 1969 movie “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,” died Wednesday morning. He was 79. Culp fell and hit his head while taking a walk outside his Hollywood Hills home. He was found by a jogger who called 911 and was pronounced dead at Hollywood-Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles, said LAPD Lt. Bob Binder. An autopsy is pending. “My mind wants to flow into sadness, but I want to stay above that,” Cosby told The Times on Wednesday. “Those of us who are the firstborn always dream of that imaginary brother or sister who will be their protector, the buffer, the one to take the blows,” Cosby said. “I’m a firstborn, and Bob was the answer to my dreams. He was the big brother that all of us wish for.” MORE
