Robert Morse, who starred in the hit US drama Mad Men, has died at the age of 90. His most well known role was as Bert Cooper, the head of the show’s advertising agency, who gave his surname to the company Sterling Cooper.
In a career spanning nearly 60 years, he appeared in about 100 theatre, TV and film productions, having first made his name in 1961 in a stage adaptation of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, based on Shepherd Mead’s best-selling book – for which he won the Tony award for best actor in a musical.
