Title: Poe and Lincoln; Old radio and New audio!
Post by: Wich2 on October 21, 2009, 07:06:07 PM
Dear Folks-

Just a reminder for those of you in the NY area:

This Thursday through Sunday is the 34th annual Friends of Old Time Radio Convention!

I'll be doing YOUNG MR. LINCOLN, THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER, a new SciFi Noir piece, BURNT, and a panel on the bicentennial of Abe & Edgar.

Other shows on the bill include "Life of Riley," "Great Gildersleeve," and "The Saint." Performed by Chuck McCann, Will "Sugarfoot" Hutchins, Simon "Hitchhikers" Jones, Arthur "Lucky Charms Leprechan" Anderson, and many more.

Details here:

It's big fun; hope to see you there!

Break a leg, Craig and say hi to Chuck for me. I'm constantly amazed they never book him for Chiller. He and Zach would have a great time!

                                                                   Enjoy the convention!

Thanks, Mike.

It's probably my last of four tributes to Uncle Abe this year; I'd do my damndest.

And hey - I can't believe FOTR's pooh-bahs never booked Zach, to do an INNER SANCTUM or such!

Is that a Norman Rockwell pic of Abe?

Thanks, (other) Mike.

Yup that's Rockwell's "Young Abe Lincoln" (a late piece, I think...)
