Treat Williams had an over 50-year career in entertainment, with more than 120 film, TV and theater credits to his name when he tragically died in a motorcycle accident at 71.

Williams was a versatile and well-loved actor on and off-screen, with friends and co-stars sharing an outpouring of grief over his death.

The Connecticut-born actor got his start in theater and appeared in the original Broadway production of "Grease" as Danny Zuko, as a replacement. (John Travolta also appeared in the Broadway production, as T-Bird Doody before playing Danny in the 1978 film).

He made his film debut in the 1975 movie "Deadly Hero" as a police officer, before going on to secure one of his best-known roles in "Hair." "Hair," the 1979 film adaptation of the Broadway show, starred Williams as radical hippie George Berger in a star-making performance, that also earned him a nomination for the new star of the year Golden Globe.
