Product Description
His childhood dream was to become a sea captain, but fortunately for Chicago and Door County theatergoers Bob Thompson chose acting instead. Three-time winner of the coveted Joseph Jefferson award, the consummate character actor has captivated audiences for over six decades appearing with such stars as Betty Grable, Joe E. Brown, Earl Wrightson, Robert Wagner, Stefanie Powers, Dina Merrill and many others.From the horsedrawn era of the early 1920's when iceskating in Garfield Park was idyllic, to summers working on an Indiana farm, encounters with Chicago gangsters, wonderfully eccentric teachers at the Goodman Theatre School, several Broadway runs, and his poignant memories of Peninsula Players' early years in Fish Creek, Wisconsin, where he has been an audience favorite since 1938, Bob Thompson weaves a fascinating auto-biographical tale of his multi-faceted acting career.
