RIP Corporal LeBeau
Last surviving cast member of Hogans Heroes. Loved watching it when I was a kid.
Longtime French actor, singer and Holocaust survivor Robert Clary, known for his lead role in "Hogan's Heroes," has died at age 96. Clary died Wednesday morning in his Los Angeles home, his granddaughter, Kim Wright, told The Hollywood Reporter. Clary -- named Robert Max Widerman at birth -- was born March 1, 1926, in France and forced into internment in a Nazi concentration camp as a child. At age 27, he moved to United States to pursue his career. Clary is most notable for his role as Corporal Louis LeBeau on the World War II-centered sitcom "Hogan's Heroes." Before his death, Clary was the last living cast member from the series' original principal cast. In 1949, he appeared on "The Ed Wynn Show" and performed a French language comedy skit while still learning English. He later took his role in "Hogan's Heroes" in 1965. He also appeared in several film roles, including "Remembrance of Love," "Days of Our Lives" and "The Young and the Restless." In 1965, he married "It Takes Two" actress Natalie Cantor. They were married for 32 years until her death in 1997. https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/new...c0864a05b82f39 |

He was great. I have all Hogan's Heroes episodes recorded. Such a great comedy about something so serious.
RIP LeBeau. |

Yea, NU could have used a man of his talents!
But seriously, what a great show that was, watching Hogan's Heroes was a weekly standard in our house growing up as a kid! RIP !

I didn't realize that someone from the original cast was still alive.

I've been catching a few episodes lately because it's on some retro TV station. It's actually a pretty good show that stands the test of time. And yeah, it's kind of silly, but you have to make a comedy about a Nazi POW camp silly or it won't work.

Most people aren't aware, but all of the Nazis in Hogan's Heroes were played by Jewish men.

Yeah werner klemperer (klink) refused to play the part unless they promised him that klink would always fail. Ww2 was still fresh and I'm honestly surprised they were able to pull it off. Such a great show. Glad it was switched to ww2 as it was originally pitched as a show about prisoners that snuck out from regular prison to do good.
