    Subject:  Ron Lackmann, [removed] P.

    Ron is the second prominent OTR author to die in the past 10 days. I
    recall him well, not only from his books, but our visits together at
    FOTR Newark. Many remember this tall, stocky, genial, and gentle guy
    at the FOTR conventions. He acted or directed several re-creations in
    the past years.

    I've checked (on-line) the only newspaper in his county (Ulster
    County, NY) which is The Daily Freeman but it does not yet have Ron's
    obit published.

    Below, I've combined the two career summaries that Ron wrote for
    himself on the dust jackets of two of his books:
    "Same Time, Same Station" foreword by Norman Corwin (Facts on File,
    1996) and "This Was Radio", foreword by Leonard Maltin (Great
    American Radio Corp, 2000)

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Ron Lackmann is the author of 34 books including "Remember Radio",
    "The Soap Opera Almanac," "Remember Television" and over 20 books for
    Weekly Reader. He has also written numerous short stories, articles
    and children's plays. Ron has appeared as actor, director, and/or
    narrator for more than fifty radio plays produced by AFRS. For
    several seasons, he hosted the radio show, "Education in Action" for
    WHLI in New York. Ron was also the voice for several animated cartoon
    characters and has appeared on stage and in film. For many years, he
    taught drama and speech at Central High School in Valley Stream, NY.
    His "Encyclopedia of American Radio" (originally titled "Same Time,
    Same Station") won the Pat Browne Award for Best Reference Book by
    the Popular Culture Association. In the late 1990s, Ron lived and
    worked on a 150 year old farm on 50 acres of mountain top in
    northeastern PA.

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    By Googling Ron, I came up with another interesting trivia fact about
    him. In the fall of 2003, his home, which he occupied with Barbara
    Gelman, was the subject of an article in the architectural section of
    a magazine published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Their
    residence, Hasbrouck House, in the Hudson Valley of NY, was built in
    1752 and contains most of the original interior and exterior.

    Subject:  Ron Lackmann, RIP
    X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: from multipart/alternative
    X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: Alternative section used was text/plain

    Today I telephoned Barbara Gelman, Ron's best friend, with whom he
    lived for over 50 years. She said he died of heart failure on Feb
    24th; he was 75 years old.

    He has been cremated and there will be no funeral service. He wished
    to be interred with his parents at Pine Lawn Cemetery on Long Island,
    NY and she is looking into that possibility. Some of his family
    members in New York are planning a memorial service but no place or
    date has been chosen yet.

    She will be submitting his obituary to the local paper in Ulster
    County, NY (The Daily Freeman) but does not know when it will appear.
    She and Ron never discussed to which organization donations could be
    made in his name in lieu of flowers, but she will choose soon in that
    regard.

    He had three surviving family members: two nephews and a niece. Cards
    of sympathy can reach them through her: Barbara Gelman, 4098 [removed]
    Hiway 209, Stone Ridge, NY 12484.

    She does not like email and took my phone number. When she calls with
    additional details, I will post them on the Digest.

    It's a little off topic I suppose but the issue was dealt with in the
    first movie. Even tho pay fons were still around, they were no longer
    little closets as depicted in the days of OTR. They were open air "booths".

    He used a revolving door to make the switchero.

    Ron Sayles wondered "Because of the proliferation of cell phones and the
    disappearance of phone booths, if Clark Kent were around today where could he
    change into his Superman persona?"

    A Starbucks restroom, perhaps?  In some places Fourbucks are more common than
    phone booths ever were.  And actually, whenever I had to use a phone booth in
    those days, they always seemed to be busy and occupied.  But Clark was always
    able to find an empty one.  It must have been his Super Powers!

    While doing some research the other day I noticed that
    [removed] has finally gotten his search by date option running.
    It appears that it could be helpful if you are looking for something on a
    specific date. I was able to find some shows that were broadcast on my birth
    date.

    Regards,

    Craig

    [removed] he wasn't 100%  correct:

    Actually, if memory serves, in the comics the  DIRECTION wasn't the point,
    but rather going very, VERY fast? (More Einsteinian,  that.)

    Except of course, in the climax of the first Reeve/Donner  film - which
    idiotic Deus Ex Machina ending nearly ruins the thing.

    And -  back on topic: all hail Clayton "Bud" Collyer, the very audio
    embodiment of  Siegel & Shuster's origanal squat, squinting, laughning Man of
    Tomorrow!

    Best.
