Probably best known for his runs on shows like "Mission: Impossible" and "A&E Biography", we of course remember him for films like Parts: The Clonus Horror and B-movie favorite It Conquered the World.
Oh, and he was in some movie about an airplane.

Godspeed, sir, and rest well. |

And the role that made him, the part of "Security" in the movie Stalag 17.
Adios Mr, Graves.

And Airplane!
Also don't forget, his brother was James Arness. Arness featured in the classic sci-fi films Them and The Thing From Another World. Meanwhile poor brother Peter got stuck with Beginning of the End and It Conquered the World. Oh, well.
Rest in peace, Mr. Phelps. |

Best comments I've seen on this news:
"In his honor, this thread will self-destruct in five seconds."
"When told of the news of his death, the Secretary disavowed all knowledge of his actions."
(Okay -- I came up with the second one.)

A loss indeed.
I have to say, he showed a Robert Stack level of cahones when he parodied his own image in AIRPLANE!
