Jack Cassidy, Actor, Dies at 49 In Fire at Los Angeles Apartment

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 12— Jack Cassidy, whose career took him from Broadway musicals to film and television roles, died today in a fire that swept through his penthouse apartment.

The actor’s badly burned body was found in the apartment and identified by the Los Angeles Medical Examiner through dental charts, according to a spokesman for the county sheriff’s office. Jewelry belonging to Mr. Cassidy was also found on the body, said Rowland Perkins, the actor’s agent.

Mr. Cassidy, 49 years old, was formerly married to Shirley Jones and was the father, from a previous marriage, of David Cassidy, the pop singer. The fire in which he died extensively damaged the interior of his penthouse apartment arid, according to fire officials, was apparently touched off by a cigarette left smoldering on a couch. – Source

Jack Cassidy and Milton Berle worked together in `Spring in Brazil`. Berle was present at Cassidy`s funeral service; that is, if it was Cassidy who perished in that house fire. After all, you`d think he`d know where the door was, as he tried to crawl to safety. pic.twitter.com/EGqOcYCpGP
