Died October 28, 2026 · Age 96

Dolores Huerta

Got half of America to boycott grapes and gave farmworkers the rallying cry "sí se puede." Negotiating with death, though? No se puede.

Born April 10, 1930

Died October 28, 2026 · Age 95

Barbara Barrie

Nominated for an Oscar, a Tony and three Emmys, and lost every single one. Death is the first time anybody opened the envelope and actually read her name.

Patrick Stewart

Did sixty years of Shakespeare, and the world only noticed once he put on space pajamas as Captain Picard. Finally beamed up for good.

Born July 13, 1940

Died October 26, 2026 · Age 80

Susan Saint James

Played the "Wife" in McMillan & Wife, billed behind a man and an ampersand. She finally gets her name first, on the headstone.

Born August 14, 1946

Died October 25, 2026 · Age 90

Walter Koenig

NBC hired him in 1967 because they wanted a Davy Jones lookalike to snag the teenage girls, then slapped a Monkees wig on him to close the deal. He spent the next six decades insisting everything was invented in Russia, survived a space eel crawling into his ear in Wrath of Khan, and asked half of San Francisco for directions to the “nuclear wessels.” Shatner and Takei are the last two standing. Place your bets.

Born September 14, 1936
