Film, stage, and television actress Herta Ware passed away Monday at the age of 88. While perhaps not widely recognized, she left behind a wide body of work, including guest spots on shows such as The Golden Girls, E.R., Cagney and Lacey, Knots Landing, and Star Trek: The Next Generation. She was the wife of the late Will Geer, who played "Grandpa" on The Waltons, and was one of the founders of the Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum in Southern California.
