LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Veteran actor Karl Malden, who won an Academy Award for his role in "A Streetcar Named Desire," has died at age 97, his manager said Wednesday.
Malden died in his sleep about 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, said his manager, Bud Ross.
Malden appeared alongside Marlon Brando in two of director Elia Kazan's classic films of the 1950s -- "A Streetcar Named Desire" and "On the Waterfront." He won the best supporting actor Oscar for "Streetcar" in 1952 and was nominated for his role as a priest crusading against crooked union bosses in "On the Waterfront."
Ross said he did not know the cause of death.
"It could be a combination of things," Ross said. "He was 97 years old."
In addition to his movie career, Malden starred in the 1970s television crime drama "The Streets of San Francisco," with Michael Douglas.
Malden was the president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences from 1989 to 1992.
In 2004, he received the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award.
One of Malden's last acting roles was in 2000, according to IMDB.com. He played a priest in an episode of "The West Wing."
Malden was born Mladen George Sekulovich on March 22, 1912, in Gary, Indiana.
