A family member revealed that the former actor had died at his home on Saturday, according to TMZ. Law enforcement sources told the publication that police visited Rich's home and found him dead.
The family member did not reveal his cause of death, but police sources said it did not appear to be foul play.
Rich had starred in a number of projects throughout his career, which began after he was cast in the late 1970s ABC sitcom, Eight Is Enough, as Nicholas Bradford, when he was just eight years old. The series, which aired for a total of five seasons, had followed the premise of, 'a family with eight very independent children,' according to an IMDB synopsis.
Following the show, he additionally made appearances in shows such as Code Red, which lasted for one season, and Dungeons And Dragons. He also worked on the 1997 film, The City. However, the talented star made the decision to step away from Hollywood and the entertainment industry in the '80s to stay out of the limelight, and opted for a more private life.
Rich was born in 1968, and lived most of his life in Los Angeles. His career took off when he began learning from a drama teacher at Chatsworth High School, who had also taught talented stars such as Top Gun alum, Val Kilmer.
