Loretta Swit, best known for her role on “M*A*S*H.”, died May 30. She was 87. “Loretta was a supremely talented actor,” posted Swit’s “M*A*S*H.” co-star, Alan Alda, on X. “She deserved all her 10 Emmy nominations and her 2 wins. But more than acting her part, she created it. She worked hard In showing the writing staff how they could turn the character from a one joke sexist stereotype into a real person — with real feelings and ambitions. We celebrated the day the script came out listing her character not as Hot Lips, but as Margaret. Loretta made the most of her time here.”
