Last night I started to read Frank Langella'a 'DROPPED NAMES', often linked and sold by Amazon with 'DOUBLE LIFE', a memoir that Norman Sunshine and I wrote.
As I read further into his book, I came to a chapter on Dolores Del Rio that mentioned a production of Anastasia that starred her and that I had been in as an actor. Frank was an apprentice at the Pocono Playhouse, one of the theaters on our summer tour. I had been hired to play opposite Miss Del Rio although I was much younger than she. When I was born, she was already a star of silent movies.

"I laughed and gasped at its inside-show-business stories and was intrigued by the cutthroat advertising and art worlds. Brilliantly written, filled with humor—and occasional heartbreak—DOUBLE LIFE follows a fifty-year marriage, revealing its love and warts.”
—Joan Rivers

"I became more immersed in my work than every before. Each morning after my swim and breakfast with Alan, I would head downtown. Hours would disappear as I stood working in front of my easel. Sometimes I would be accompanied by Bach or Mozart coming from my portable speakers, but mostly I preferred to work in silence with the soft, steady murmur of the city outside my open window." Co-Author Norman Sunshine in 'Double Life'
