Feb 16 12 11:29 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	This may not have a lot of appeal to the CHFB crowd but BearManor's about to come out with my (gulp) 23rd book, this one a passel of interviews with veterans of Westerns which I originally did for WESTERN CLIPPINGS magazine. There's a long Q&A with Fess Parker, Charlotte Austin (FRANKENSTEIN 1970) talks about her dad Gene Austin's one Western and her own Westerns, June Lockhart remembers guesting on lots of top Western shows, writer-producer Andrew J. Fenady gabs endlessly about THE REBEL, Pat Fielder talks about writing for THE RIFLEMAN, William Phipps recalls some wild times making a Western with John Agar in the Philippines(!), Ann Robinson talks about her debut in an indie short made by cowboy star John Carpenter, Gary Clarke recalls THE VIRGINIAN, the actress-widow of John Hart reminisces about Lon Chaney Jr.'s shenanigans on HAWKEYE AND THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS, Lisa (QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE) Davis has some great yarns about her two Westerns, Robert Colbert talks about MAVERICK and other Warners series, Robert Clarke remembers his RKO Westerns with Tim Holt et al., blah blah blah. (Yeah, they're mostly people who are better known for their sci-fi credits; funny how that worked out!) I'd like to think it'll be out in the next few weeks. End of shameless self-promotion.

I just checked the Bear Mannor website and while this book is not up for sale yet, they do have the PAUL PERCINI autobiography you helped work on there. I forgot about this one. Looks really interesting as well. Links To All The Classic Monster Stills I've Posted: http://monsterkidclassichorrorforum.yuku.com/topic/30758

Feb 21 12 8:50 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	One weird highlight of the Davis interview is her description of the day that Marshall Thompson appeared on the set of a Western to tell its star Richard Long that his (Long's) young actress-wife Susan Ball had just died -- and Long crying on Davis' shoulder on the Western's coffin-filled mortuary set. eeek!

Mar 1 12 10:25 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The bathroom? Oh! You mean "my office"! Love the Chuck Connors cover and the dedication of the book inside. Really cool. So now I have this, your Carradine book, and your Paul P. book all lined up. Seems I've got some reading to do!

Apr 5 12 7:24 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I finished WILD WILD WESTERNERS last night and man, it really was a great read! Among my favorite interviews were Bill Phipps (great John Agar stories), Paul Picerni (unbelievable Burt Lancaster and Shelly Winters anecdotes), Ed Faulkner (remembering John Wayne, Rock Hudson, and others), Ann Robinson (heartwarming remembrances of Johnny Carpenter), and on and on. Well done, Tom. WILD WILD WESTERNERS is a winner.
