Actor James McArthur, who created the character of Danno on "Hawaii 5-0" is dead at the age of 73. Star of Disney films including "Swiss Family Robinson"and "Kidnapped" and his film and television career far exceeds the iconic Danno.
IMDB reports "In a career spanning more than four decades, James MacArthur has developed a body of work which is wonderfully dynamic in both scope and range. Portraying everything from crazed killer to stalwart defender of law and order, frustrated teenager to cynical senior supervisor, he has appeared in numerous films, television programs, and stage productions since his career officially began back in 1955. Although he had been performing in parts during summer stock productions since 1949, making his stage
debut in "The Corn Is Green," his real acting career did not begin until he starred as the complex and misunderstood teenager in
John Frankenheimer's Deal a Blow."
