Roy Huggins
Producer-writer Roy Huggins is best known for creating the TV series, Maverick, 77 Sunset Strip, The Fugitive, Run For Your Life and The Rockford Files (with Stephen J. Cannell). This biography details his personal and professional life, aided by exclusive interviews with family, producers, actors and writers who worked with him. The author was granted exclusive access to Huggins' personal memoirs to provide an intimate, firsthand account, including his early career at Columbia, RKO, Warner Bros. and 20th Century-Fox. Huggins' political activism at UCLA and the subsequent House Un-American Activities hearing in 1952 is covered in depth. The book includes an extensive filmography and previously unpublished photographs provided by family members.
She was Only 3
Ruby Adriaenssens was a cute, outgoing three-year-old when she was snatched by John James Jr., raped and killed. To silence her screams, James, 17, crushed her tiny head with a cinder block. The slaying became one of Winnipeg's most notorious crimes. This is not so much because of the unspeakable brutality of little Ruby's death, but because of how the case fell apart under the Young Offender's Act and because of how it was ultimately bungled by the courts.
Pete Duel
Most widely known for his starring role as outlaw Hannibal Heyes in television's Alias Smith and Jones (1971-1973), actor Pete Duel (originally Peter Deuel) led an unpredictable and often tumultuous life, cut short by his highly publicized suicide on New Year's Eve 1971, at the height of his celebrity. In the expanded second edition, this biography of Duel reveals more personal aspects of his career and death, including his formative years in New York City and Hollywood. The author draws on extensive interviews with Duel's closest family and friends, including sister Pamela Deuel, former girlfriends Jill Andre, Beth Griswold, Kim Darby and Dianne Ray, as well actors, producers, directors and writers who worked with Duel.
