David Fitzgerald Doyle (December 1, 1929 – February 26, 1997) was an American actor.
[edit] Career
Doyle, born in Omaha, Nebraska, graduated from Campion High School in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin in 1947. Doyle was married twice, first to Rachel, then Anne Nathan Doyle. Doyle is perhaps best remembered for his role as detective John Bosley on the television series Charlie's Angels, for which reason he is occasionally mixed up with TV actor Tom Bosley. He is also remembered by younger generations as being the voice of Grandpa Lou Pickles on the Nickelodeon animated television series Rugrats until his death. Doyle died of a heart attack at the age of 67 in Los Angeles, California on February 26, 1997. The role of Grandpa Lou Pickles was taken over by Joe Alaskey, better known as the voice of Plucky Duck in Tiny Toon Adventures.
