David Soul, one of the stars of the hit television series Starsky & Hutch, died Thursday at age 80. The sad news was confirmed by his wife, Helen Snell, with a heartbreaking message. With a few heartfelt words, the woman remembered her partner as a great man who dedicated his life to art and family.
“David Soul, beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother, passed away yesterday after a brave battle for life in the company of his family. He shared many extraordinary gifts in the world as an actor, singer, storyteller, creative artist and dear friend. “His smile, his laughter, and his passion for life will be remembered by the many lives he has touched,” he wrote in the statement released through various international media.

The actor rose to fame thanks to Starsky & Hutch, a police action series broadcast between 1975 and 1979 on ABC, in which he shared the lead role with Paul Michael Glaser, who gave life to Starsky. There they played a duo of detectives who won the public’s affection thanks to their unconventional, but effective, techniques to combat crime.

Additionally, the artist appeared on other shows such as Owen Marshall, Counselor at Law, and The Yellow Rose. He also bet on his musical career and some of his songs were very successful in the 1970s, as was the case with “Do n’t Give Up on Us.”
In 2001, Soul won a defamation case against a journalist who called Dead Monkey, a play in which he was acting, ‘the worst production he had ever seen’, without having attended a performance.
