We got sad news that Actor Pat Morita passed away yesterday of natural causes at the age of 73. He had a very fascinating history. Born in 1932, he was hospitalized in his early years with Spinal Tuberculosis only to recover and be sent to a Japanese American Internment Camp during World War 2. The OG Nutter might have more info on this part of his life... Going thru all that adversity, He rose up in the ranks and became one of the first prominent asian american comedian/actors in Hollywood. You might remeber him from his appearances on Green Acres, The Odd Couple, Happy Days and his biggest role, The Karate Kid. R.I.P. to an OG.
