Episode description
TVC 701.5: Actor and author Laurence Luckinbill (The Boys in the Band, The Delphi Bureau, Star Trek V, Affective Memories: How Chance and The Theater Saved My Life) talks to Ed about working with writer/producer Sam Rolfe on The Delphi Bureau (ABC, 1972-1973); how Larry's portrayal of Glenn Garth Gregory as a "reluctant hero" was a first for American dramatic television (beating out James Garner's reluctant hero Jim Rockford by two years); and the invaluable lesson about blocking that Larry learned from William Roderick when they starred together in the national stage tour of A Man for All Seasons. Larry's autobiography, Affective Memories, is available wherever books are sold through Sunbury Press.
