Patrick Carlin, a veteran writer who authored books, penned material for comedy shows and frequently collaborated with his brother, comedian George Carlin, has died at age 90.
His niece told Variety that Carlin died on Saturday in Hollywood, just over two weeks after he suffered a fall.
“He was my dad’s hero,” said Kelly Carlin, the daughter of George Carlin. “A lot of his thinking in the last 25 years of (George’s) career were fed by and connected to Pat.”
