Illness and Injury Sideline Noel Neill

by Armand Vaquer

Larry Ward, Noel Neill's biographer and manager, has cancelled Neill's spring convention appearances due to illness and injury. This was reported to day at the Superman Homepage.

She has recently been fighting a bout with a cold/flu and is slowly recovering from that. However, it was reported that she also recently took a fall and injured her right hip and leg. Thankfully, she sustained no broken bones, but it was a deep bruise and Ward told the Superman Homepage that "Traveling is not an option."

It has been reported at the Superman Homepage that her appearance at the April Wondercon is among the cancelled appearances. Noel Neill will be 90 this November.

Best wishes to Noel for a speedy and thorough recovery!
