LOS ANGELES, April 9 (UPI) -- Actor Stanley Kamel, who had prominent roles on TV's "Monk" and "Beverly Hills, 90210," was found dead in his Hollywood Hills home Tuesday.

The New Jersey native was 65 when he died of a heart attack, E! Online reported Wednesday.

Kamel played Tony Marchette, the gangster father of character Dylan McKay's wife on "90210." He was more recently seen playing Dr. Charles Kroger, the title character's psychiatrist, on "Monk."

The USA cable television network, which was home to "Monk," said in a statement: "USA is deeply saddened by the news of Stanley Kamel's passing. Stanley was an amazingly talented and extremely kind man, and an important member of the USA family. He will be sorely missed."
