One of his best known roles was as Theo Huxtable on The Cosby Show. This is such sad, tragic news. Gone too soon at age 54. He was one of the child stars who made it, who didn't succumb to the horrors of drugs and alcohol abuse. He was excellent at his craft and had a thriving career. Ironically, I last saw him on 9-1-1. He drowned in Costa Rica on Sunday. My condolences to his family, friends and colleagues. I bet the rest of the cast of The Cosby Show are devastated.
An excerpt from the article below:
Fellow poet and author Kevin Powell, who was a friend of Warner's, described him as a devoted husband and father who was humble, kind and supportive of other people.
"You would have never known he was a major child star," Powell said in an interview Monday with CBS News. "He was never someone who was into the celebrity of it. He knew what he was. He knew, you know, that he was America's son. He literally was America's son as the only male child on that historic show, 'The Cosby Show.'"
