He was first hospitalized in Ithaca, N.Y., for two weeks in May after suffering what was diagnosed as a mild heart attack. Serling was readmitted to the hospital June and placed in the intensive care unit for an undisclosed illness. Serling was one of the best known and honored writers in television. Such plays as "Patterns" and "Requiem for a Heavyweight" were prestigious highlights of television's "Golden Age" of drama in the 1950s. They were later made into motion pictures.

He received six Emmy awards, more than any other writer. He also received the Peabody and Sylvania awards. In addition to his "Twilight Zone" and "Night Gallery" programs, Serling was known for frequent appearances as host or narrator on such specials as the Yves Jacques Cousteau series. He also appeared in many TV commercials. Serling constantly chided television for not living up to its potential as a dramatic and cultural medium and for its censorship.

He was the first writer to serve as president the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. He lived in Interlaken, N.Y., while serving as a visiting professor at Ithaca College. In 1963 he also took a year off from his writing to teach at his alma mater, Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio. He was born Dec. 25, 1924, in Syracuse, N.Y., and went to school in Binghamton, N.Y.

He enlisted in the Army paratroopers in 1942 and served three years in the Pacific.
