Ian Ziering, the actor’s longtime Beverly Hills, 90210 co-stars, broke the news of the actor’s demise. He posted many images of the late actor on Instagram along with the caption, “RIP, actor, “In the last few months we’ve lost Jessica Klein one of 90210’s most prolific writers as well as the producers, Denise Douse who played Mrs. Teasley, and now I’m very sad to say Joe E Tata has passed away.”
He further continued that although the peach pit was a set from the 90210 series, it frequently had the feel of a Joe E. Tata show. His memories of earlier times and the incredible adventures he experienced while working in the entertainment industry captivated us all.
In 2018, Joe Received A Diagnosis Of Alzheimer’s Disease
Kelly, Joe’s daughter, revealed that he received an Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis that year. She looked after him until she fell unwell herself and was taken to the hospital. Kelly further launched a GoFundMe to cover Joe’s medical costs.
“While I was healing, my father inadvertently signed paperwork putting him under conservatorship,” Kelly had stated in the campaign. He claimed that he was pressured into taking up this conservatorship.
“Now 86 years old, his disease has proceeded to its last stages,” she had further revealed that his condition had reached an advanced level. He lived in fear and confusion all day long.
The actor debuted on television in 1964
Joe was born on September 13, 1936, in New York City. In two episodes of the 1964 sitcom Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C., he made his acting debut. The Rockford Files, Hill Street Blues, General Hospital, and Lost in Space were among the shows he later went on to star in.
However, he achieved recognition when he played Nat Bussichio, the proprietor of the Peach Pit, in the television series Beverly Hills, 90210. Ten seasons of the show were produced. Joe later played the same character in 90210, a spinoff of the original series.
His net worth stood at $2 million at the time of his demise with him married to Susan Levy.
