LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ron Leavitt, who co-created the sitcom "Married With Children," has died Sunday. He was 60.

Leavitt died of lung cancer at his Sherman Oaks home surrounded by his children, said his fiancee, the model and actress Jessica Hahn.

Leavitt was best known for teaming up with Michael G. Moye to create "Married With Children," a sitcom about the luckless shoe salesman Al Bundy and his dysfunctional family.

"Married With Children" ran on the Fox network from 1987 to 1997 and became the network's second-longest running sitcom behind "The Simpsons." Leavitt served as the show's executive producer and helped write nearly 150 episodes.
