CES founder Jack Wayman, a veteran of the consumer electronics industry in the U.S., has died at age 92, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) announced on Tuesday.

Wayman died on Saturday of natural causes, CEA said.

“The consumer electronics industry has lost a legend and, more personally, I have lost a great friend and mentor,” CEA CEO Gary Shapiro said in a statement.

A World War II veteran, Wayman was part of the Office of Strategic Services, a CIA forerunner, and interrogated German soldiers at the end of the war, according to a 2012 article by CEA.
