Wonderful! In February of '09, I managed to attend his lecture at University of Alabama in Birmingham. Highly enjoyable. He spoke about his lifelong interest and passion for photography, and a preview of one of his most recent projects SECRET SELVES.

I gave George a call earlier today and he did not realize the date was today. Wished him happy anniversary he thought I meant his 59 year marriage... (silly man)

Well, one must keep things in perspective.

So you got me a ticket to Leonard, too, no?

ANYONE is to be commended on a 59-year marriage whether it's their anniversary or not! Is his near the anniversary of the show?

Happy birthday. The show premiered just before I turned five, at which time I was still in nursery school.

Thank you! I was 10 when it premiered, I wish I could remember that day better, I do remember which episode it was. We watched it religiously for three years until it was canceled. Always been a fan.

I have to admit but George's son answered the phone when I called and I could hear background noise. George usually answers his own phone.

George's son and I went to high school together...but we did not know each other back then.
