Conrad Bain Cause of death – The entertainer Conrad Bain, who has kicked the bucket matured 89, found popularity in middle age in the sitcom Diff’rent Strokes (1978-86). As Phillip Drummond, a white tycoon who encourages, then, at that point, embraces, two stranded dark siblings, Bain was the straight man to the humble, joking Gary Coleman, who played Arnold, the more youthful of the two young men. At the point when his one-time servant passes on, the sympathetic single man Drummond takes Arnold and his sibling, Willis (Todd Bridges), from their Harlem ghetto to his extravagance Manhattan penthouse and carries them up with his girl, Kimberly.
Different Strokes handled racial issues with humor and was bold in standing up to no-no subjects like medications, bulimia, rape, and pedophilia. The sitcom was contrived as a vehicle for both Coleman, who had been seen in TV ads, and Bain, following his co-featuring job in the series Maude (1972-78) as Dr. Arthur Harmon, the stodgy, moderate neighbor of the much-wedded title character, played by Bea Arthur.
