For Bill His Pinup Girl: The Shirley Booth & Bill Baker Story available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Actress Shirley Booth entertained audiences with her superb comedic and dramatic skills in stage, screen, radio and television productions. Shirley's loving marriage to Army Corporal Bill Baker Jr. during the height of World War II brought her an idyllic life on a working dairy farm in Bucks County, Pennsylvania in 1946. The couple's togetherness would end abruptly a few years later, but Shirley's love for Bill remained always. For Bill, His Pinup Girl glimpses those tender years with several precious, never-before-seen photographs belonging to Shirley's family, offers later views of her onstage in the 1954 Broadway musical By the Beautiful Sea, and provides the transcript of a lost television interview with Merv Griffin from 1963. "He loved the farm. He'd seen so much devastation during the war that he wanted to make things grow. But he did too much. He always did the heavy work while his helper drove the tractor. He didn't know he had a heart condition." - Shirley Booth. Jim Manago authored the well-received biography, Love is the Reason for it All: The Shirley Booth Story. The book captured Shirley's determination to succeed, her minimalist approach to acting, and distinct philosophy of life. He holds a B.A. in Philosophy (St. John's University, N.Y.), and received his M.A. in Cinema Studies (The College of Staten Island, CUNY). Jim & Donna Manago Books http: //shirleybooth.info

"Your father is the American Chaplin."-- Groucho Marx (speaking to Gary Hall)"Huntz Hall was a complicated person: extremely generous and loving on the one hand, scarily angry and violent on the other. I think the hardest thing for me was the absolute disappearance from my life of a father beginning in the 6th grade and lasting until I got out of high school...I have a priest friend who says you can't really grow up until you forgive your parents. As I get older I understand my father much better - he was emotionally deprived as a kid, and then he was unprepared for fame and money when they arrived in his teenage years. So he didn't have the skills to be a parent. He did the best he could with the emotional equipment he had."-- Rev. Gary Hall (Huntz Hall's son)Behind Sach: The Huntz Hall Story presents the life of the actor who made us laugh with his unforgettable and unique persona of Horace DeBussy Jones, better known simply as "Sach."
