He did work in wardrobe but also loved his writing and photography; a very artistic man. I stayed with Brian whilst travelling the states in October 1987, his home was full of some amazing movie memorabilia amongst them a signed photo of Jon-Erik and Brian spoke very warmly of him when asked. During my visit Brian worked on an episode of Moonlighting and General Hospital and had worked on films such as Psycho 2 and 3 with Anthony Perkins with whom he was good friends; i was fortunate enough to be introduced to Anthony who was such a nice guy. Unfortunately i lost touch with Brian around 1990/91 and only very recently learned that he sadly passed a few years ago. During his career Brian worked with some gorgeous people so having an attraction to some of them would'nt have been difficult and lets face it who wouldnt have had a huge attraction to Jon-Erik.chrisjames17https://www.blogger.com/profile/07963756195595419383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-21199965622768404722011-11-23T12:42:42.928-05:002011-11-23T12:42:42.928-05:00For those coming across this post who cannot read ...For those coming across this post who cannot read the scans of the pages, you can right click on them and choose "Open in a New Window" and then, once opened, click again to magnify the picture to its original large size!

He wrote a biography on Eleanor Parker that is extremely elusive and VERY expensive when located. I've always wanted it, but won't pay for it what it's usually offered at.Poseidon3https://www.blogger.com/profile/10465785002285422594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-88574683684802823872011-11-08T22:31:53.589-05:002011-11-08T22:31:53.589-05:00Great too to see all those old-timers out enjoying...Great too to see all those old-timers out enjoying themselves!Michael O'Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17820802843771524920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-79281994519698132812011-11-08T22:31:09.421-05:002011-11-08T22:31:09.421-05:00What a fun find!
