Mr. Stevenson, who lived in Manhattan and walked with a cane, was crossing First Avenue at E. 73rd Street at 2:30 AM when he was hit by a red Mazdo Miata, the Daily News reported. The car did not stop but raced away. Mr. Stevenson appeared in three Broadway shows: Maxwell Anderson's Anne of the Thousand Days in 1948, which starred Rex Harrison; Robert E. Sherwood's Small War on Murray Hill in 1957; and the 1960 musical Do Re Mi.
