RIP LYNN STALMASTER 1927-2021

The KING of casting has died.

To list all of the movies and TV credits that Lynn Stalmaster was involved in would take much too much space.

Suffice to say he had over 400 movie and TV credits and launched the careers of many a star. Just a brief rundown of the movies and TV productions he was associated with include HAVE GUN..WILL TRAVEL, GUNSMOKE, THE BING CROSBY SHOW, HOGAN'S HEROES, DELIVERANCE, CONVOY, DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW and so much more.

On a personal note...it was Lynn who got me my first job at United Artists and without him this strange and wonderful life I have had wouldn't be the same.

A pioneer and a heck of a nice guy. I guess you could say I owe it all to Lynn Stalmaster. He passed away on Feb 12th at the age of 93.
