He joined Actor's Equity in 1946 and his last engagement onstage was in 2008. He took a 22 year leave of absence from the stage after a long run on Broadway in the prize winning "Darkness At Noon." During those 22 years he represented artists in the musical theatre, including Chita Rivera, Robert Goulet, Julie Andrews, Ron Field, Linda Lavin, John Kander and Fred Ebb.
At the height of his agency career, he left that field to return to the stage. In the decades since, he has appeared in some 25 plays, for one of which ("Angels Fall") he won the Carbonell Award in 1982 for Best Supporting Actor in a play. He's been in 7 feature films and over 50 television series, soap operas, TV films and mini-series. He is the author of "Paris Is Out!" a comedy which brightened Broadway in 1970 for 104 performances. The musical "Shine!" for which he wrote the book, was a triple prize winner in the 2010 NYMF Festival of New Musicals, and has been published by Samuel French and recorded by Original Cast Records. His memoir, "Supporting Player," published in 2004 is still selling as a vivid visit to the Golden Age of Broadway.
But in the beginning, in the halcyon days of 1949, he was sustained by the then-flourishing field of radio, so come join him as he conjures up Alice and Harold, a young couple, newly arrived in the Big Apple with high hopes, as they discover each other, and together enter the revolving doors of the mighty United Radio Society (URSo) in search of fulfillment and an honest dollar. Whether or not you recall the pull of those voices emanating from Philcos across the land, you'll have a wild ride, for distance has lent enchantment to this very Disneyish dinosaur called Radio.visualizza meno
