Also Ingrid Bergman's leading man in a brief engagement of Captain Brassbound's Conversion by GBS in 1972; Wilmington, DC and NY for two weeks.
But the first weekend of that two week run at the Barrymore was the Tony Awards and Bergman presented score, book and then Best Musical (to Two Gentlemen of Verona).

I loved him. And because he was a very "private man" whose personal life was off-limits, I just know he might have loved me back, too.

While others were swooning over Michael Landon's "Little Joe" I had the hots for older brother "Adam". I even had one of his record albums when I was a kid. He was one sexy papi.

I saw Pernell Roberts as King Arthur in CAMELOT at the Westbury Music Fair in the late 60's.
May he rest in peace.
