United Kingdom, Aug. 26 -- Frank Price, the veteran Hollywood executive who oversaw some of the most acclaimed and commercially successful films of the late 20th century, has died aged 95.

Born William Francis Price Jr, he was one of the few writer-producers to rise through the ranks to lead both television and film divisions, and passed away on Monday (25.08.25) in Santa Monica.

His death was confirmed by his son, Roy Price, the 58-year-old former president of Amazon Studios, who wrote on X: "My father, Frank Price, passed away peacefully in his sleep this morning at 95. He lived a full life and we will miss him deeply."

Frank led MCA's television division in the 1970s, overseeing series including Kojak, Baretta and The Rockford Files...
