His maniacal performance as The Riddler on the Adam West Batman series is widely credited with helping make the show a phenomenon: The first episodes aired featured Gorshin's portayal.
Almost ten years earlier, he had appeared in Invasion of the Saucer Men, a kitsch-classic low-budget theatrical release.
He was a popular guest star on sci-fi series, ranging from Star Trek to Wonder Woman.
In his later years, he also worked as a voice artist. One of his last performances was a recurring role on The Batman cartoon series as Professor Hugo Strange.
Gorshin was also known as a celebrity impressionist.
