Henry Darrow: Lightning in the Bottle") and my trusty spouse/photographer Mike Pippins.

Read Rick Armstrong's recent interview with Henry Darrow on
the CLASSIC FILM AND TV CAFE' Blog here:
Henry busy autographing behind the display of his biography
The book SOLD OUT on the second day!
Fortunately, fans can buy autographed copies personally signed by Henry all year from our website:
(Regular softcover & ebook available on Amazon.com and regular softcover is available through other online booksellers)
Even with books sold, Henry's writing hand didn't get a rest. Between photos, festival programs, original scripts from The High Chaparral and anything else fans wanted him to sign, he was a busy guy! Here he is signing a t-shirt for fan Sherrod Baden. The beautiful lady on his left is his wife, Lauren Levian.
Speaking of books and authors, the delightful lady with Henry is actress/author Kathy Garver.
You probably remember her as "Cissy" in the classic series "Family Affair."
Henry Darrow still attracts the ladies like bees to honey and was pleasantly surprised when actress Nancy Stafford ("Matlock") said she had a crush on him for 40 years.
James Baldwin of the Victory Television Network interviewed Nancy Stafford, Henry Darrow, Lana Wood and other celebrities at Winston-Salem. Lucky for you, he uploaded those interviews to YouTube here:
Lovely Pamelyn Ferdin was a popular child actress in the 60s and 70s, guest-starring twice on Henry's series
The High Chaparral. She later voiced "Lucy" on the Charlie Brown specials.
Good times & good food with good friends.
