Mr. Sklar wrote comedy for the television show Laugh-In and appeared on that show and on the Sha Na Na show. He acted in two Andy Warhol films, Trash and L'Amour, and appeared in the Broadway production of Scarpino. In the early 1970's, he founded a company called Childstar, for which he designed jewelry. He also designed greeting cards and was an importer of Japanese textiles and antiques.
Sklar died of lymphoma at the New York University Medical Center on March 5, 1984, and was survived by his mother, Bertha Sklar, a sister, Carol Wueste, and a brother, Norman Sklar.[2]
