Robert Crane, John Cerney, Meagan Bejar, and Three-Cornered Circle

TVC 695.4: Via remote from the back patio of Davenport's Restaurant in Encino, California: Ed welcomes back Robert Crane, eldest son of Hogan's Heroes star Bob Crane, and the author or co-author of several books on movies and television, including My UnHollywood Family, Hollywood Plateau, 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 (the last three of which were collaborations with Bob's longtime writing partner, Christopher Fryer). Bob and Chris' latest book, Three-Cornered Circle, is a screen play released in book form that is also an adaptation of one of the most poignant stories of the Crane book: the period in Bob's life when he had to juggle the biggest break of his career at the time—being hired as right-hand man for movie superstar John Candy—with the tragic news that Bob's wife at the time, artist and landscape designer Kari Hildebrand, has been diagnosed with cancer. Three-Cornered Circle is available through Kill Fee Publishing. Also joining Bob and Ed at Davenport's are commercial artist John Cerney, who did the cover art and other illustrations that appear in Three-Cornered Circle, and Meagan Bejar, the managing editor of the book.
