New data on the colors of galaxies in distant, rich clusters of galaxies are presented. Of seven clusters examined having z<0.20, all exhibit color distributions indicating that a significant proportion of the member galaxies are undergoing star formation. The one cluster studied with z<0.20 clearly shows a reduced fraction of such galaxies.
