Once Upon a Dime
Remember when going to the movies was a dime. I do. All that magic for 10 cents. The movies in Bourbon, Indiana, where I spent my first 16 summers, were shown on the white washed outside wall of the hardware store. Bring your own chair and if it rains you have to wait till next Saturday night.
Movies were a real treat and they still are but I never dreamed of being a cowboy or an actor or a space cadet. Basketball filled my dreams. Athletes were my heroes.
First Bloomington, Indiana was home, then
Silver Springs, Maryland, then Baldwin, Long Island, New York and then Los Angeles with Mom and Professor Dad and younger brother Kent.
My wife Nancy and I have lived in Las Vegas, NV, since 2002.
I followed my basketball dreams to a scholarship to UCLA
and even played the game while in the Army in Germany. The base gym was much warmer than marching in the snow.
At UCLA I was studying to be a coach, basketball or
football. Then a very HAPPY ACCIDENT happened. I was working at a summer job moving furniture. While loading a truck with office furniture in Hollywood, I heard a voice yell "Hey you!" "Me?" I said to the guy leaning out the window of his car that was stopped by the curb. "Yes" he said. "Come here and let me see your hair line."
I was sure I didn't hear what I thought I'd heard so I
put down the chair I was taking to the truck and went over to the fella. "Let me see your hair line." he repeated. I thought the guy was loony tunes so I brushed the hair out of my face, said "How's that?" and turned to go back to work. Over my shoulder I heard, "Here's my card, call me at my office." I took the card and he drove off. The card said "Talent Agent."
I showed the card to my boss who said "Just load the furniture!" We did and took it to, and I'm not making this up, a Hollywood Agency. While moving the desks and chairs into the offices three more agents gave me their cards. Nothing like this had happened to me before and it hasn't happened again.
Like I said A HAPPY ACCIDENT. Who said "Life is what happens to you while you're on your way to do something else." I called the first Agent that had given me his card and that led to an interview at Review Studios and that to a screen test.
