Talk Show
Nearly 40 years ago, host & producer George Sirois was introduced to this week's guest when he stumbled upon a movie on HBO called "Summer Camp Nightmare." It featured a brief appearance by actor & author David Hern, and this was not only the starting point to this week's conversation, but it was also the start of David's time in Hollywood. Since then, he appeared in various roles on films & television programs, and he took the time to document his time in Hollywood with his memoir, "How Not to Make it in Hollywood.”
