SUPERMAN radio star JOAN STANTON is suing celebrity financial manager KENNETH STARR, accusing him of losing tens of millions of dollars of her money.
The actress - who voiced the role of Lois Lane on the radio in the 1940s - claims she turned to Starr for advice after her husband died and left her $70 million (GBP35 million) in his will.
A lawsuit, filed on Tuesday (15Apr08) at New York's Supreme Court, alleges he misled her and plunged her money into risky investments.
But Peter Parcher, a spokesperson for Starr + Co., claims Stanton's assets "grew considerably" during her 20-year relationship with the firm.
He says, "It will become clear during the course of this litigation that Mrs. Stanton was well-advised."
Starr's former clients include Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes and American news anchor Diane Sawyer.
