Part 2 I talk to Chris Korman about his book OMG..It’s Harvey Korman’s Son…Lots of fun and lots of great stories
True Stories Of Tinseltown - A podcast by Grace Collins
Categories:
Chris wrote a book that was a love letter to his dad. I enjoyed the book and talking to Chris especially. We discussed his learning disability. The great support he got from Harvey. Harvey never thought he was all that and a bag of chips. He had studied Classical theatre.. Many very big stars came up to Harvey such as Burt Lancaster, Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward and so many others telling Harvey how great he was and that they watched every Saturday night and they could never do what he does. Chris was with his dad through all that. Sad story about Chris meeting Rock Hudson on the set of Dynasty.. Chris has overcome so much. He is a husband and dad and he made his father so proud. Very good listen..THe book is a great read. Chris and I are now pals..He is a true sweetie pie. WE give a shout out to our friend Stone Wallace. All his friends miss him.. Thanks so much to Chris..You were fab and so honest.
