Born on October 5 1950, Jeff Conaway was a regular on Babylon 5 for its second to fifth and last seasons between 1994 and 1998 as well as three Babylon 5 TV movies River of Souls, Third Space & A Call To Arms in which he played Security Officer and subsequent Security Chief Zack Allan.
Non-Babylon 5 viewers would perhaps recognise Allan in Grease in which he played Kenickie.
Other movie work included Elvira: Mistress of the Dark
His work has mainly been on television and other TV roles included stints in Who’s The Boss, The Bold and the Beautiful, Mr and Mrs Smith.
Sadly he was on Celebrity Rehab due to his real life addiction to cocaine, painkillers and alcohol after having back surgery.
His personal life had included being married to the sister of his Grease co-star Olivia Newton-John, Rona Newton-John.
Conaway died on May 27 2011 at the age of 60 after he was in a coma resulted from being unconscious and it is believed that was due to overdose of prescription medication which ultimately drained out his body.
