Woolcott was one of four panelists on a New York radio discussion on 1/23/1943 when his failing heart grabbed his full attention. As he was helped from the studio, the heart attack was followed by a cerebral hemorrhage and he became paralyzed on the left side. By the time he reached the hospital, he was gone.
