TV's Jimmy Olsen has died at 87.

:(

Quote:
Jack Larson, the playwright and librettist who, as he often predicted with good-natured resignation, will be remembered best as the actor who played the cub reporter Jimmy Olsen in the television series “Adventures of Superman,” died Sunday at his home in Brentwood, Calif. He was 87.

This leaves Noel Neill and Phyllis Coates as the last surviving members of the Adventures Of Superman cast.

So grateful to have had him as a part of our world and as a part of the Superman character.

God Bless you Jack Larson.

Memorial for Jack Larson Is Set for Dec. 6

A memorial for actor Jack Larson, who played Jimmy Olsen on the 1950s television series Adventures of Superman, will be held Dec. 6 on the UCLA campus in Westwood.

It will take place starting at 5 p.m. at the James Bridges Theater in the school's Department of Film, Television and Digital Media building on the north end of the campus. The venue is named in honor of Larson’s late partner, the writer and director James Bridges.

He and Bridges met when they were supporting players in the cast of the 1957 film Johnny Trouble (1957). They later formed a production company, and Larson produced such Bridges films as The Baby Maker (1970), Mike’s Murder (1984), Perfect (1985) and Bright Lights, Big City (1988).

Larson died Sept. 20 at his home in Brentwood. He was 87.
