We are here to take you back for a moment to a simpler time ...

Whether it was Slam Bang Theater, Nightmare, Million Dollar Matinee, Hoover the Hound, Binky & Belinda, Reveille, Home Town Harmony, or The Three Stooges, this site has some basic background information about my father's career and highlights from his years in television in the Fort Worth area from about 1955 until 1972.   My hope is that this site will be a place that people who have been looking for information about my father's shows and other programs from the early days of KTVT history can come read and see some images from the past.  On the "Fans Speak" page, I have imported comments and thoughts from the great fans who have emailed me about Dad's career and work. Click here to see what the fans have said in recent weeks and months.  All materials I have used for this website come from the personal collection of my father.  I inherited his entire archive when he passed away in 1991. 

Save the Date!
