Helen Hayward Jul 08, 2025

The renowned actress June Lockhart, who is well-known for roles in “Lassie,” “Lost in Space,” and “A Christmas Carol,” has reached her 100th birthday.

While she’s kept a low profile for the last several years, her presence continues to warm hearts across generations.

Celebrated for a career that shaped classic television and film, she remains a cherished figure for fans and her former co-stars alike.

June Lockhart lives privately in her own home, surrounded by the quiet rhythms of her personal life. She no longer appears publicly, yet stays engaged in her own way. According to those close to her, she keeps up with current events, reads the news, and remains mentally sharp.

Former co-stars, including Bill Mumy from “Lost in Space” and Jon Provost from “Lassie,” recently spoke about Lockhart with heartfelt admiration. They shared memories that reveal her wit, grace, and timeless influence on those around her.

Mumy noted she’s in good health and continues to live life on her terms. “She’s still sharp,” he explained, highlighting her independence and resilience.

Jon Provost, who played her son in “Lassie,” recalled how Lockhart would light up any room. During appearances together at autograph shows, she once stretched into a yoga pose with surprising agility and then asked for a glass of chardonnay. Moments like that, according to Provost, showed her fun spirit and timeless charm.

“She’s always done things her way,” Provost said. “She is 100 years old now and still amazing in every way.”

His admiration runs deep. He spoke not just as a colleague but as someone who still feels connected to her warmth, generosity, and presence. “She’ll always be my TV mom,” he added, a sentiment shared by countless fans.

A Career that Shaped Generations

June Lockhart began acting at a young age and quickly made a name in the golden era of Hollywood. Her breakout role in “A Christmas Carol” left a lasting impression, but it was her television work that etched her into pop culture history.

In the 1950s, she joined the cast of “Lassie” as Ruth Martin, offering gentle guidance and steady strength as the show’s matriarch. Later, she played Dr. Maureen Robinson in “Lost in Space,” which was one of the first television shows to feature a woman scientist and mother, a powerful combination that was exceptional at the time.

Through decades of performances, Lockhart built a reputation for playing women of strength, compassion, and intellect. Her characters weren’t just written — they were lived and loved.

A Legacy of Resilience and Joy

Even off-screen, Lockhart left a mark. Colleagues remember her for more than her acting — her sharp wit, thoughtful conversations, and generosity defined her relationships on and off set.

She made a cameo as the voice of Alpha Control in the 2021 revival of “Lost in Space,” and her most recent formal public appearance was at a Hollywood Chamber of Commerce event in 2015. This understated look was a bridge to the future and a tribute to the past.

Lockhart is also the mother of actresses Anne and Lizabeth Lockhart, continuing a family legacy in entertainment.
