Richard Lewis, the comedian known for his work on Curb Your Enthusiasm and Robin Hood: Men In Tights, has died. He was 76.

Lewis’ death was first reported by Deadline. Decider has reached out to Lewis’ reps for further comment.

At the time of his passing, Lewis has been battling Parkinson’s disease. He went public with his diagnosis in April 2023, telling fans he had been first diagnosed two years prior and was managing his condition with “the right meds.”

He assured fans at the time, “Luckily, I got it late in life, and they say you progress very slowly if at all.”

Lewis was born June 29, 1947, in Brooklyn and raised in New Jersey. He went on to attend Ohio State University, after which he tried his hand at stand-up comedy. His work eventually landed him a gig on The Tonight Show, and he became recognized along with contemporaries like Richard Belzer, George Carlin and Lily Tomlin.

His first onscreen credit is listed in IMDb as the TV movie Diary of a Young Comic.
