NEW YORK — A spokesman for Oral Roberts said the evangelist who rose from tent revivals to found a multimillion-dollar organization and an Oklahoma university bearing his name died today. He was 91.

Spokesman A. Larry Ross said from Carrollton, Texas, that Roberts died of complications from pneumonia in Newport Beach, Calif. Roberts was hospitalized after a fall on Saturday.

He had survived two heart attacks in the 1990s and a broken hip in 2006.

Roberts overcame tuberculosis at age 17 and credited that triumph with leading him to become one of the country's most famous ministers.

By the 1960s and 1970s, the Oklahoma-born Roberts was reaching millions around the world through broadcasting, publications and personal appearances. Oral Roberts University, chartered in 1963, became a Tulsa landmark.
