Jack Lemmon (1925-2001) was a
Hollywood actor. In a career spanning five decades, Lemmon carved himself a niche as cinema's neurotic everyman, and as one of the most versatile actors of his--or any--generation. Equally at home in comedy and drama, he had a unique combination of intensity and vulnerability that could break your heart one minute, and have you doubled up with laughter the next. Whether he was clearing his sinuses as Felix Unger in
The Odd Couple, or clearing his desk as the slumping salesman Shelley Levene in
Glengarry Glen Ross, Lemmon commited himself totally to his roles.
