He also appeared in The Twilight Zone episode "The Sixteen-Millimeter Shrine " and guest-starred on Richard Diamond, Private Detective .
In the 1960–1961 television season, Cowan starred as John Larsen, the owner of Comics, Inc., and the boss of Paul Morgan, a young cartoonist portrayed by Tab Hunter in The Tab Hunter Show . In 1962, he guest starred on Mr. Smith Goes to Washington . He also appeared on Daniel Boone and Going My Way , starring Gene Kelly .
