Jack Bannon, who played the genial and raffish assistant city editor Art Donovan on Lou Grant, has died. His stepdaughter, Molly Allen, says Bannon died Wednesday in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, where he had lived since the mid-1990s. Bannon was a regular on the acclaimed newspaper drama, which starred Ed Asner in the title role and aired on CBS from 1977 to 1982. Before Lou Grant, Bannon appeared in such series as Here's Lucy, Daniel Boone, Mannix, Kojak and The Rockford Files. His father, Jim Bannon, played the cowboy Red Ryder in several films.
