Jack Edward Larson was born in Los Angeles, California, to Anita (Calicoff) and George E. Larson. He was raised in Pasadena, and attended Pasadena Junior College (by coincidence, exactly as did his Adventures of Superman (1952) co-star George Reeves). He was a contract player at Warner Bros. Typecast as Jimmy Olsen, Larson found it virtually impossible to get other acting roles after the series went off the air and retired from acting a few years later, concentrating on writing. His plays have been highly acclaimed and he has had works performed in theaters and opera houses around the world. He was the longtime companion of late director James Bridges, with whom he co-produced a number of popular films of the 1970s and 1980s. Larson was an erudite and charming man who seems to have been close friends with many of the more prominent figures of the arts in the latter half of the 20th century, including Virgil Thomson, John Houseman, Leslie Caron, Libby Holman, Montgomery Clift, Salka Viertel, Christopher Isherwood and James Dean. Larson died of natural causes while relaxing on the deck of his Frank Lloyd Wright-designed home in the Brentwood section of Los Angeles, at the age of 87.- Director

C.K. Williams was the son of a salesman and a homemaker, born during the Depression. He attended the University of Pennsylvania and started writing poetry when he was 19. He began his career as a poet in the mid-1960s, after writing to a magazine editor about the violence directed against civil rights activists. The process of writing this letter led Williams to create a new paradigm for writing his poetry. The result was "A Day for Anne Frank," a meditation that linked the civil rights movement with the Holocaust and became the opening poem of his first collection, 'Lies' (1969). Since then, Williams has emerged as one of America's major poets, with over a dozen books of poetry and prose, winning a National Book Critics Circle Award for 'Flesh and Blood' (1987) and the Pulitzer Prize for 'Repair' (1999). He is known for his long, sinuous lines (often so long, they must be severed to fit on the page) and what one critic called his "novelistically urban" settings. Williams currently teaches at Princeton University, and divides his time between Princeton and Paris, France.- Actress
