Today's star is neither an actor/actress nor a jock.
Creator of the very cool Perry Mason.
When I was really little, like age 5 or so, when Perry Mason would be on, the theme music would scare me to bits.
=================================================================
I wonder if one of these ads had Rex Stout, creator of the bo overweight, orchid-obsessed super-sleuth Nero Wolfe.
I discovered Nero Wolfe in a second hand bookstore. I was attracted by the VERY neato retro cover art. What was inside was even better.
The voice in Nero Wolfe in all stories and novels is that of his right-hand man, Archie Goodwin.
Archie's tone ranges from clever to absolutely hilarious.
Thus and therefore, you should run to eBay or ThriftBooks.com and look up Rex Stout.
