Jack Larson, Jimmy Olsen on '50s Superman TV Show, Dead at 87

Jack Larson, who first rose to fame as Clark Kent’s bow-tied sidekick Jimmy Olsen on the 1950s syndicated TV series “Adventures of Superman,” died Sunday in Brentwood, Calif., at age 87.

Daunted by his early TV fame, he mostly shunned acting after the series ended due to star George Reeves’ sudden death in 1959.

He wrote several plays as well as librettos for operas, including one for composer Virgil Thompson (“Lord Byron”).
