    Canadian actress Sharon Acker died on March 16, at age 87. She didn't have much of a film career, but I remember her from a scad of TV appearances she made in the late 1960s and throughout the 1970s. Probably most people on this list are too young to remember those, though, so they most likely remember her from re-runs of the Star Trek episode "The Mark of Gideon", in which her character (Odona) tried to convince Captain Kirk that they were the only two people remaining on board the Enterprise.

    ... and her trans activism.
    During a time, I might add, when trans activism did not exist according to many current "gender critical" loudmouths.

    RIP Rachel Pollack.

    Former multi term mayor of Los Angeles Richard Riordan died at age 92 IIRC. I think from what they're saying on the news that his big thing was term limits, which limited him out. This is about all I know of him. RIP.
