Actor Ron Glass has died. He was 71. Glass is best remembered for his role on the sitcom 2 "Barney Miller," where he played wry 3 NYPD Detective Ron Harris.


(SOUNDBITE OF TV SHOW, "BARNEY MILLER")


RON GLASS: (As Ron Harris) Hello. Yes, ma'am. Well, I'm real sorry about the interference, but there's nothing we can do about pigeons on your antenna 4.


(LAUGHTER)


GLASS: (As Ron Harris) Yes, ma'am. Well, you see, we tried arresting them once. But the handcuffs kept slipping off their little feet.


WERTHEIMER: That role earned Glass an Emmy nomination 5 in 1982. Raised in Evansville, Ind., Ron Glass received a degree in drama and literature from the University of Evansville. After college, he moved to Minneapolis and acted in regional theater before moving to Los Angeles to pursue a career on screen.


Glass was a prolific 6 television actor. His career began with a guest appearance on "All In The Family" in 1973. He went on to appear in more than 50 television shows, including "Sanford And Son," "Friends," "Star Trek 7: Voyager" and "Firefly." Glass died of respiratory failure on Friday night, according to his agent Jeffrey Leavitt, who added, Ron was a private, gentle and caring man. He was an absolute delight to watch on screen.
