- Santa Barbara CA: Fithian Press, 1997
Santa Barbara CA: Fithian Press. Fine. 1997. First Edition. Softcover. [nice as-new copy, with no discernible wear]. Trade PB Although never a household name, the author (1930-2018) still had a quite respectable 40+-year career in films, on Broadway, and (especially) on television. In this book he "shares advice for the aspiring actor on such thorny topics as how to get out of doing your own stunts and how to keep from being bored out of your skull during a long day on the set," and also "dishes hilariuos backstage stories from his career, dropping famous names on every page -- a casual encounter with Marilyn Monroe; John Wayne's reading of Shakespeare; Raquel Welch under a buffalo robe; and much more." .
