O Sweet Sir John.Here I am as Master Ford with perhaps the single greatest influence on me as an actor, the incomparable Don Eyssen in his swan song. I remember we all got together and bought him a gold signet ring as a memorial. He had wanted to inscribe it with "Let the heavens rain potatoes, I have lived long enough!" But it wouldn't fit, so we settled for "O sweet Sir John."

Fleeing the buck basket.

There is no higher calling than that of clown.

Here we are with Sarah Couch and Sue Burkhalter.

Years later, remembering those days, Don said to me, "We had prime acting in those days. Prime acting..." He was right.
