    Cowles manager, Tsu Tsu Stanton, announced the sad news on Twitter Friday.

    The veteran actor’s career included roles on the small screen, the big screen and on Broadway.

    As well as his role in All My Children, his television appearances include The Bold and Beautiful, Oz and Life on Mars.

    Cowles earned two daytime Emmy nominations for his portrayal of Tuggle and also appeared in the web-only version of the long-running soap opera when it debuted in 2013.

    His roles on Broadway included The Time of Your Life and Sweet Bird of Youth. He also appeared in Hollywood films Shutter Island and American Loser. He also wrote several plays.
