I have, gentle reader, written two short stories and one poem based on characters that Gerald has played. Taking the stories in date order, the first is a continuation from Gerald’s five-minute cameo appearance as Captain Delgado in the film noir, “Gilda”, starring Rita Hayworth. The story is called “The Last Dance”.
My second story is called “Return of the Sea Witch” and is a sequel to The Dick Powell Theatre episode “The Sea Witch” in which Gerald plays Jerry Plowright. Not a nice guy!
And finally, here is a poem I wrote for Gerald’s character, Pat Keogh, in the episode of Cheyenne called “Rendezvous at Red Rock”. Another baddie!
