So... Which Three Stooges actors/actresses are still alive?

<< < (8/10) > >>

It still amazes me how many of these people are still alive from way back when.  When I was a kid, watching the Stooges, I had no idea how old the Stooges shows were.  Thus, I figured everyone in the shorts to be long since dead.  I still think it's amazing.

Shemp:
Hi guys,

I'm planning a trip to Southern CA this summer.  Last Winter, I went with the kids and visited the boy's graves and the stairs from "An Ache in Every Stake".  We had a great time.  This time, I want to meet up with Curly's grandson (have been in communications with him) and I also want to convince someone who worked with the stooges and remembers them and of course is still alive to have lunch with me and the kids and reminisce. 

Of the list you folks have put together, and of those who are still alive in 2013, and on top of that happen to live in Southern CA (if you know) are there any that you recommend I try and track down specifically? 

Thanks in advance!!!

Sylvia Lewis!  I do not know where she lives, but she was at the Stooge's supporting actress reunion in '07 in Burbank.  She does not travel by plane, and therefore will not go to the Fan Club Meetings in Philadelphia.

She was the sexy devil that dances for Shemp!  She had a very interesting career as a dancer and choreographer.

Shemp:
Very cool, thanks!  You are right, she is still alive.  She lives in Thousand Oaks.  That would be on my way to LA (I live near Sacramento).  It appears she was only in one short, Bedlam in Paradise?

Any others?  Perhaps I can get lucky and there is a supporting actor/actress that was in many more shorts, thereby increasing their level of knowledge and insight?  I'm not trying to be greedy or ungrateful, I just want to get the most I can out of any of those folks down there that are still alive. 

I did not know there was a Stooge Supporting Actors Reunion in Southern CA, maybe it was a one time thing, you did not mention, but tell me more if it's an annual or regularly recurring deal.... I'll go if they let me in!! 

FineBari3:
It was at the Ray Court's collectors show.  I believe Jim Pauley put it together, and it was a one time thing.  You would be surprised that most of the supporting actors do not recall much about working with the Stooges.  They mostly came in for one day, did the scenes, and that was it!
