When I was 21 years old, Tom Gries, Director of, "Will Penny" & "The Greatest" had given me my first acting job so I could receive my Screen Actors Guild Card. I was so excited, I wept. I worked at getting that card for 4 years. When the film was finished on December 1976 He said to me, After the Holidays get in touch with me when you get back to Los Angeles. My first and only great contact. When I called to tell him I had arrived...I was told he died the day before. It was January 1977. He was 54 years old. I will never forget his kindness to me. The man was completely unpretentious.
I've Played My Life Like a Song. A Restless Dream.

I've Walked This Dream Along My Path Since I Was Only Ten. I'm Grown Now and I'm Confused, Somehow I Didn't Know it Then.
The 70's & 80's Was a Great Time for Me. I Miss Those Days Terribly. I Wish, I Would Not Have Wasted So Much Time.
Getting By, Doesn't Mean You're Living.
Any successes I've had, I owe to my wife, Jeannie, She has never forsaken me.
If God sent Angels to guide us here on Earth, My wife is certainly an Angel, She is the most caring, loving and most giving person I have ever known. I am fortunate to have her in my life.
The era of Great Movie Star Heroes are over. The films that are made today are nothing but special effects cartoons. The actor is at the bottom of importance.
In the (1980's) Aldo Ray was very nice to me. We would sometimes have coffee late a night and talk about the old days of Hollywood.
All my life, I have loved being alone and I think along the way, I grew out of being lonely. Loneliness is hard for some people. I found out how to be my own best friend. The only person I want to be around, is my wife, Jeannie.
I got my training from the stage, If you want to act get on the stage.
