His busiest period was 1955-1965, when he appeared on virtually every major TV series in America. His video roles ranged from a pompous time-travelling scientist on Twilight Zone to a wisecracking witch doctor on "Gilligan's Island". Shortly after completing his last film, 1976's "Woman in the Rain", "Stanley Adams" committed suicide at the age of 62. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
