Martin Milner, George MaharisVeteran TV and movie producer Herb Leonard died of cancer last night in Hollywood.

Besides directing the movies Going Home and The Perils of Pauline, and producing several movies including those two movies, Popi, and Friendly Persuasion, Leonard was also producer on three classic television shows: The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin, The Naked City, and Route 66 (the original, not the remake in the 90s). Interestingly, he was a production manager on two famous serial dramas in the 40s and 50s: Atom Man vs. Superman, which became the Superman TV series, and Batman and Robin.

His last credits were Katts and Dog, a TV series in the late 80s, and a 1974 Three Stooges anthology film.
