  • Summary

  • TVC 653.2: Bruce Dern biographers Robert Crane and Christopher Fryer talk to Ed about why Dern worked frequently in television in the 1960s—even when he was making movies like The War Wagon with John Wayne—because casting directors from both industries always knew to keep an eye on him. Other topics this segment include the nearly fatal lung injury Dern suffered in 1967 while filming an episode of Run For Your Life; the secret behind Bob and Chris’ longtime writing partnership; and the backstory of how they came to write Crane: Sex, Celebrity, and My Father’s Unsolved Murder. Jack Nicholson: The Early Years, Bruce Dern: Things I’ve Said, But Probably Shouldn’t Have: An Unrepentant Memoir, and Crane: Sex, Celebrity, and My Father’s Unsolved Murder are all available from University Press of Kentucky.
