RIP Joan Alexander Stanton, old time radio actress at age 94. She was best known as the actress who played Lois Lane opposite Bud Collyer in the radio "Adventures of Superman". She also appeared in some (but not all) of the Fleischer Superman cartoons. Among her other radio roles, Alexander also played Della Street in the Perry Mason radio shows.

Speaking of the Fleischer cartoons, Greenbriar Picture Shows has a fascinating blog entry about how well the cartoons were received. Or not so well. Apparently the audiences weren't quite as wowed as later viewers.
