Home BATMAN TV SERIES (1966-1968) Burt Ward Gets Hollywood Walk of Fame Star

Burt Ward Gets Hollywood Walk of Fame Star

And it's next to Adam West's!

2628

The 2,683rd star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame has been placed and it belongs to the great Burt Ward!

Mr. Ward, of course, played Dick Grayson/Robin on the iconic BATMAN 1960s TV series.

What’s even cooler — and appropriate — is that his star has been placed next to his Robin’s Batman, the late and legendary Adam West!

A personal note…

It was BATMAN that made me a Batman fan as a child.  In fact, my late Mom brought me in my homemade Batman costume to a Beaumont, TX Woolco — 20 miles north from my hometown of Groves, TX — to see “Robin” and get Mr. Ward’s autograph.

Speaking for Team BOF, congratulation to Mr. Burt “Robin” Ward — your place in Batman history was already important and secured…but this is still an awesome honor!  – Bill “Jett” Ramey

(Thanks to BOF’s Ryan Lower for reminding me this went down today!)

Bill "Jett" Ramey
Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
