   ‘Baywatch’ actor Michael Newman dead at 68 after 18-year battle with   
   Parkinson’s disease   
      
   Michael Newman, who played lifeguard Mike “Newmie” Newman on “Baywatch,”   
   has died. He was 68.   
      
   Newman passed away 18 years after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s   
   disease.   
      
   The news was confirmed Tuesday by Newman’s close friend, Matt Felker, who   
   recently directed the Hulu docuseries about “Baywatch.”   
      
   The late actor died “from heart complications” on Sunday evening   
   “surrounded by his family and friends.”   
      
   “I got to see Mike the last time he was conscious and he looked [at] me   
   and in typical Mike fashion said, ‘You’re just in time,'” Felker told   
   PEOPLE.   
      
   Newman was the only “Baywatch” cast member who was a real-life lifeguard.   
   He appeared on 150 episodes of the show, the most of anyone except David   
   Hasselhoff.
