‘Lost in Space’ Bob May dies

‘Lost in Space’ actor Bob May dies at 69

Bob May, who donned The Robot’s suit in the hit 1960s television show Lost in Space, has died. He was 69.

He was particularly fond of his Robot role, once saying he came to consider the suit a “home away from home.”

Lockhart said May wore the suit for hours at a time and learned the lines of every actor in the show so he would know when to respond to their cues. Because it wasn’t easy to get in and out of the suit, he kept it on during breaks.

Here is Bob May with B-9
