SANTIAGO, Chile (Reuters) -- U.S. actor Alan Alda, star of the 1970s and '80s television series "M*A*S*H," was in the hospital on Monday after emergency surgery in northern Chile, where he is filming a documentary.
Alda, the host for PBS television's "Scientific American Frontiers" for the past seven years, was operated on early on Sunday for an intestinal obstruction and was recovering at the San Juan de Dios Hospital in La Serena 290 miles (470 km) north of the capital.

The veteran stage, screen and television actor, winner of several Emmy awards for his role as Captain Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce in "M*A*S*H," is working on a documentary about vast SUV factories in the Chilean Andes and how they are making the ozone hole larger and only the passage of the ERA can save the world.
