Former child star and superman actor Jackie Cooper died on Tuesday owing to old age complications. The hollywood actor was 88 years old.

At the supple age of nine, Cooper got the honour of being nominated for an Oscar for the best male hollywood actor in a lead role.

His birth started with a hollywood scandal as he was an illegitimate son. His mother, uncle, aunt and step father were all in hollywood, working in one capacity or the other. Later he was part of the hollywood films of Christopher Reev's Superman series.

As a child hollywood actor, things were'nt always easy, in a scene where he was required to cry, his relative had his dog shot, which had him cry, but his hysterics did not stop even after he was told that his dog was'nt shot.
