'All in the Family' Writer

Michael "Mickey" Ross, a television writer and producer, who had a role in creating "All in the Family," "The Jeffersons" and "Three's Company," has died at the age of 89. He was a longtime associate of Norman Lear and won an Emmy for co-writing an episode in which Archie and Edith Bunker inadvertently get caught up with swingers.

In recent years, Ross -- whose given name was Isidore Rovinsky -- became interested in promoting Jewish and Yiddish studies and gave millions of dollars to endow Jewish studies programs at UCLA and his alma mater, City College of New York.
