26 at his home in Upper Black Eddy, Pa. He was 63. The cause was a heart attack, said his wife, Bunny. Before there were celebrity chefs, Chef Tell, who was born Friedman Paul Erhardt In Germany, came out of the kitchen to become one of the first chefs to appear on television. He earned his nickname after he played the role of William Tell as a boy.

From the nationally syndicated television show "Evening Magazine," he branched out with appearances on "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" and "Regis and Kathie Lee." He eventually had his own PBS program, "In the Kitchen With Chef Tell." His oversize personality and a German accent that some found unintelligible made him the subject of skits on "Saturday Night Live," and his wife said he had been the inspiration for the Swedish chef on "The Muppet Show." He took full advantage of his celebrity, writing cookbooks, opening restaurants, promoting cookware and food product lines, and creating a line of his own cookware and knives.
