Beloved actor Larry Hagman, well known as the television star of Dallas and I Dream of Jeannie, as well for for his support of psychedelic drug research, passed away.
On November 23rd actor Larry Hagman passed over the post-biological threshold into the mystery of whatever lies beyond life. He was 81 years old.
Hagman--who was well-known for his roles as befuddled astronaut Major Anthony Nelson in the 1960s sitcom I Dream of Jeannie, and as the ruthless oil baron J. R. Ewing in the 1980s prime-time television soap opera Dallas--died of complications due to throat cancer.
In the psychedelic community, Hagman was well-known for his strong support of cannabis and psychedelic drug research.
When Hagman was a young actor in the 1960s, he experienced LSD on several occasions, as well as peyote and magic mushrooms. He said that he “found them of profound personal importance,” and he wrote about these experiences in his autobiography, Hello Darlin’.
On CNN’s Joy Behar Show in 2010, Joy asked Hagman about his experiences with LSD. Hagman replied:
“It took the fear of death away…I went into this place that was the white light, where everything is OK. And I think it ought to be mandatory that all our politicians should do it, at least once.”
