June 10, 2012: Noel Neill Makes Surprise Appearance at Superman Celebration

Superman Celebration Larry Thomas Ward, Noel Neill's friend and manager sent us the following report regarding a surprise appearance the First Lady of Metropolis made at Saturday's Superman Celebration in Metropolis, IL at a panel with author Larry Tye, actors Gerard Christopher and Johnny Rockwell, and author Larry Ward. Looking happy and content, she took no questions but happily posed for dozens of photos with very happy fans and friends, many of whom were visibly moved by her appearance.

    When she arrived at 1 pm the room was sparsely populated, but word spread quickly of her appearance and by 1:15 the hall was packed. By 2 pm the panel was over and Noel announced herself "exhausted" and I drove her back home.

    She was glad she had attended, but was also glad she had not committed to a full day of appearances.   Later in the evening - while Noel was fast asleep - a viewing of several episodes of The Adventures of Superman took place during a tribute to Noel Neill.  It was a good day for everyone.

Look for more reports and photos from the 2012 Superman Celebration soon.
