Yvonne Craig, The Original Batgirl, Passes Away

Yvonne Craig who found pop culture fame as Batgirl on the 60s TV series "Batman", passed away at age 78 after a long battle with cancer. She was about the only reason I really ever followed the show. I had a bit of a crush on her. She also made appearances on other shows (the green skinned dancing girl on the original "Star Trek") and in movies (The Russian ballerina in one of the "Our Man Flint" films). She was a trained dancer and a very beautiful woman. Her passing is a sad loss...

Rest in piece, Ms. Craig...

<O>

I remember her from Batman but never saw the connection to Star Trek until now although I saw that episode. She was very beautiful as you said Vienna . She added a lot to the Batman series. So sorry to hear of her passing.

Rest in peace Ms. Craig.
