Requiem: Jonathon Harris, the actor who played Dr. Smith in Lost in Space, has died. He wasn't a formally trained actor, but he was a formally trained pharmacist:
Born Jonathan Charasuchin on Nov. 6, 1914, Harris grew up in the Bronx and graduated from Fordham University with a degree in pharmacology. But the lure of show business proved strong, and Harris joined a Long Island repertory company, where he performed in a number of productions before landing roles on Broadway, including one in 1946 with Paul Muni and Marlon Brando in ``Follow the Flag.''
