Kevin Corcoran - a popular child star of the '50s and '60s who went on to work as a producer on popular television series such as Sons of Anarchy - has passed away at the age of 66.
Corcoran's niece confirmed the news to Entertainment Weekly this afternoon. No cause of death was given.
Corcoran got his start as a regular in Disney movies and TV shows when he was just 7 years old.
He would go on to appear in dozens of projects, usually playing some variation of a character named "Moochie" - a nickname which Corcoran's family and friends would affectionately use throughout his life.
He gave his best known performances in the enduring 1957 tearjerker Old Yeller and its 1963 sequel, Savage Sam.
Corcoran parted ways with Disney to attend college, but returned to Hollywood (and to the studio that made him famous) as an assistant director and producer.
His second career found him working on such beloved television series as Murder, She Wrote; The Shield, and Sons of Anarchy.
Corcoran was added to the exclusive list of "Disney Legends" in 2006.
He is survived by his wife of 43 years, and his four siblings - all of whom are also in show business.
