Pat Morita

Actor Pat Morita, Mr. Miyagi in 'The Karate Kid', has died. He was 73. He was also well-known for his role as Arnold on "Happy Days."

Born in northern California on June 28, 1932, the son of migrant fruit pickers, Morita spent most of his early years in the hospital with spinal tuberculosis. He later recovered only to be sent to a Japanese-American internment camp in Arizona during World War II.

"Forever my Sensei," Ralph Macchio said in a statement released after Morita's death.
