You know the face. You know the credit list: Lost in Space, Escape
from the Planet of the Apes, Gunsmoke, Bonanza, Kung Fu, The
Twilight Zone and hundreds more... But who was Albert Salmi? Born
of Finnish parents in the Finnish section of Brooklyn, Albert Salmi
had a childhood he would recall fondly, even though it was plagued
by the hardships of the Great Depression. In an attempt to earn
money as a teenager, he broke the law; and the very wise judge gave
him a sentence that turned his life around. Salmi set his sights
for an acting career and, thanks to the GI Bill, got the best
training possible. The result was that for forty years he appeared
on the Broadway stage (Bus Stop, etc.), national television (Alfred
Hitchcock Presents, I Spy, That Girl, Dallas, etc., etc.), and in
countless films (The Unforgiven, Caddyshack, etc.). Sandra
Grabman's biography is a frank and loving tribute, combined with
many memories from Salmi's family, friends, and co-stars, and
includes never-before-published memoirs from the man himself. From
humble beginnings -- to a highly successful acting career -- to a
tragic death that shocked the world -- Albert Salmi's story is
unlike any other you'll ever read. This is the updated, second
edition
