Pat Harrington Jr., an actor best known for playing the superintendent on One Day at a Time, has died, his daughter announced on Facebook Thursday. He was 86.

Harrington — the son of Broadway actor Pat Harrington Sr. — got his start in the 1950s on shows like Make Room for Daddy and went on to appear on The Bing Crosby Show, The Munsters, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., and more before getting the One Day a Time gig.

Harrington won both a Golden Globe and an Emmy for his performance on One Day at a Time, which he starred on from 1975 to 1984. He continued to have a steady acting career after the CBS sitcom’s end, and last appeared in front of the camera on a 2012 episode of Hot in Cleveland.
