Lemmon, Jack (1925–2001)

US actor. He collaborated with Billy Wilder on the comedies Some Like It Hot (1959) and The Apartment (1960), and teamed up with Walter Matthau on the popular The Odd Couple (1968). His performances in Mister Roberts (1955) and Save the Tiger (1973) won him Academy Awards.

An accomplished performer, Lemmon made his film debut in the comedy It Should Happen to You (1954). Later work such as Missing (1982), Glengary Glen Ross (1992), and Short Cuts (1993) illustrate his flair for dramatic acting.

He was the recipient of the American Film Institute's Life Achievement Award in 1988, and in 2000 won an Emmy award for his performance in the television film Tuesdays with Morrie.
