"Mr. Wizard" Dies
TV personality Don Herbert has died following a battle with bone cancer. He was 89.
Herbert was famous for his role as "Mr. Wizard," a TV teacher who introduced generations of young viewers to the joys of science.
Former colleague Steve Jacobs says, "He really taught kids how to use the thinking skills of a scientist."
Herbert died at his suburban Bell Canyon, Los Angeles, home on Tuesday.
He is survived by six children and stepchildren and by his second wife, Norma.I used to love watchin' his experiments on Nickelodeon when I was growin' up. May he R.I.P.
