.Margot Kidder Dies: ‘Superman’s Lois Lane & ‘Amityville Horror’ Star Was 69
....Margot Kidder, who played Lois Lane opposite Christopher Reeve in the 1970s and ’80s Superman movies and starred in many other films including The Amityville Horror before struggling with mental illness in her later years, has died. She was 69. The Franzen-Davis Funeral Home in Livingston, MT, said she died Sunday but did not give a cause of death.
Kidder appeared with many of Hollywood’s leading men during her 50-year career, including Robert Redford and James Garner, but remains best known for playing the plucky Daily Planet reporter with a penchant for finding trouble in Superman (1978), Superman II (1980), Superman III (1983) and Superman IV (1987),
Born on October 17, 1948, in Yellowknife, Canada, Kidder started her career in TV in the late 1960s, guesting on such shows as McQueen and The Mod Squad. She starred opposite Gene Wilder in the 1970 film Quackster Fortune Has a Cousin in the Bronx before landing a regualr role on the 1971-72 NBC drama Nichols, starring Jim Garner, and continued to work mostly in TV until appearing in four films in 1974, including The Great Waldo Pepper.

I love Margot..she had a very nice, natural vibe// sort of an insecure, normal vibe that i was attracted to. Sad, she had some tough moments in her life but she made me smile many times and that's all i really need.
