Re: Al Doshna, author of Richard Anderson: At Last, on 6/6-6/7

On Richard Anderson's website, it states that he is an "insatiable traveler." What are some of his favorite places to visit? Also, did he enjoy working with Kirk Douglas on Paths of Glory? Sorry for the long delay. Has been a more eventful weekend than normal. As far as favorite places to...

Re: Al Doshna, author of Richard Anderson: At Last, on 6/6-6/7

Two of the most interesting chapters in the book for me dealt with topics other than show business. The first was about his family's struggles in the Depression and their leaving NYC for California in the '30s. Did Mr. Anderson have any memories of California in those days as a place to live? I was...

Re: Al Doshna, author of Richard Anderson: At Last, on 6/6-6/7

How did Mr. Anderson feel about the studio system? I think he sees it as having been a two edged sword. On the one hand he benefitted from it in a number of ways such as his training - his real success came after he left for Paths of Glory, although it was a great experience overall for him. But he...

Re: Al Doshna, author of Richard Anderson: At Last, on 6/6-6/7

Mr. Anderson has a long and impressive catalog but was there ever a plan B if acting didn't work? Unfortunately you mentioned his long and impressive catalog so I won't be able to kid you and say "Uh, oh, I'm not gonna ask him that one!!" Oh well.. It doesn't seem like he ever gave it a s...

Re: Al Doshna, author of Richard Anderson: At Last, on 6/6-6/7

Bus Stop was Richard's first real regular series so his main objective was to "keep the show going" at the time. He was very happy for the step up at the time. He remembers producer Aaron Spelling driving by him one time, being very excited and telling him "That's some great work.&quo...

Re: Al Doshna, author of Richard Anderson: At Last, on 6/6-6/7

Hi Moira, Thank you for having me here. Richard was appearing on Lights, Camera, Action! which was an early TV series and kind of a forerunner of American Idol-type shows except that it was geared towards acting scenes. Cary Grant's wife Betsy Drake who was an actress herself happened to see Richard...
