RIP JACK LARSON 1928-2015

The man who played the first Jimmy Olsen has passed away at the age of 87.

Olsen will always be known as Jimmy Olsen, cub reporter on the original Superman show of the 1950's. He landed the role in 1952 and was on the show until it went off the air in 1958.

Like so many actors, he found it hard to get roles because of typecasting. He retired from acting a few years later and concentrated on writing. He will live forever in our memories on Superman.
