Arnold Stang, RIP

[GA Russell]

I suppose that Arnold Stang is best known as Top Cat, but he was on television a lot when I was young. He was a favorite of my parents.

Here's his LA Times obituary.

Hey, guys -- sorry for screwing up this thread by substituting an inactive link (though you can still find the Stang obit by putting his name in the LA Times search box) and by somehow eliminating Jim's post, but this whole mess happened because I was ineptly trying to correct the thread-starter's not paying attention to board rules. We don't post entire copyrighted articles here, even if we also post a link to the original. A few sentences, then the link, and that's it. Sorry again, but nothing would have happened if the thing had been done right in the first place.

I loved him as Sparrow in The Man with the Golden Arm. Wow, he must've been like 137 years old. Hadn't heard his name in years. RIP.
