In January 1966 a new TV series premiered, unlike any we had seen before.  Even though it only ran on the ABC network for three seasons, it changed television history. And it made the show's star a folk hero. That show, of course, was Batman.
Adam West played millionaire philanthropist Bruce Wayne, aka Batman, whoalong with his sidekick Dick Grayson, aka Robin, fought evil criminals in Gotham City.

I met him in 1994, when he wrote A Memoir of his Batman years.
