Two great losses were Leslie Howard and Conrad Veidt. Veidt renounced his German citizenship and gave money and time to the allies during WWII. He was also a fine actor in the talking era. Lorenz Hart was also a sad loss because he was so talented. I also miss Fats Waller. He was a terrific musician but died so young. We have lots of his music on disc.

I’ve been looking forward to this one. I was familiar with many of the names besides Leslie Howard. There are many interesting stories about Hollywood actors who put their careers on hold during World War II to fight their countries. Greer Garson wanted to return to England to assist where she could; but Churchill and Roosevelt thought she could do more good in America with movies like “Mrs. Miniver”. They worked together to keep her in America despite her desire to serve her mother country.
You said you were working on other projects besides obituaries. I loved “Hollywood Bears”. Some of the back stories about the parts celebrities have played in history that are not that well known, but nevertheless interesting, might be a possibility. Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply that you have nothing else to do and aren’t terribly busy with what you’re doing now. Maybe you could consider back stories for some time in the future.
