  • Pearl Lang, 87, dancer, choreographer and teacher who founded the Pearl Lang Dance Theater.  Ms. Lang began her dance training as a child and studied acting at the Goodman Theatre.  She is survived by her husband, actor Joseph Wiseman, to whom she had been married for over sixty years.  Entire obit here.
  • Stephen Broussard, 61, distinguished attorney whose skills as an actor in community theater often transferred neatly to his work as a defense attorney in the courtroom.  Mr. Broussard majored in journalism at Northwestern University, and received his law degree from Northwestern as well.  He is survived by a daugher, maya-Camille; and a sister, Sandra.  Entire obit here and here.
