I wrote this to post yesterday but because of the tech problems we've been having here, I didn't post it when I thought I did. Yesterday was the birthday of one of my favorite people, Chuck McCann.
Actually, Chuck was one of my favorite performers before I ever met him…and I'm sure I'd have liked him even more if I'd grown up in New York when he had his legendary kids' show. But I knew him as a performer from so many movies and TV programs and cartoon shows…and then when be became pals, I started to realize he was the epicenter of the Entertainment Industry. People think I know everyone. Ha! Chuck's the guy who knows everyone. He's worked with them all and done just about everything.
He's an enormously funny, clever man with a heart large enough to have its own zip code. Here's wishing him many more birthdays. I promise to not be a day late on the next one.
