Mildred Kornman, one of the last surviving members from the silent film era and a star in "Our Gang" from 1926-1928 has died. She was also one of the last surviving actresses who worked with Laurel and Hardy in films. After retiring from films and TV, she later found tremendous fame as a fashion model known as Ricki VanDusen. With the passing of Mildred, only one silent film actor is still alive (Garry Watson). In addition, only Sidney Kirbrick, Margaret O'Brien, and Robert Blake are still alive from the original "Our Gang" in the 1930's and 1940's. Mildred was 97.
