If it checks out, I will first post the new info here (with the appropriate source credit), and use the material in a future revised edition.

Typographical Errors (Listed by Page Number): |
Acknowledgments - Page vi: An apology is due to Dr. Gotlieb of the Boston University's Special Collections. His first name is Howard, not "Herman". Page 38 / 2nd Column: In the paragraph that mentions The Great Gildersleeve, the line should read: "Conried had a recurring role as the insipid, sickly teenage boarder Oliver Honeywell, complete with cracking voice." Unfortunately, the printed page says Hans' character is named "Olive" Honeywell. Page 58 / 2nd Column: In speaking about Professor Kropotkin and Mrs. O'Reilly, the description should have been "those two old sparring lovebirds... " They may have also been sparing, but that's not what I meant to say. Page 73 / 2nd Column: The year shown for the Have Gun, Will Travel episode ("A Knight to Remember") should be 1961, not 1963. The Television Log is correct in noting the original air date as December 9, 1961. Page 144 / 1st Column: "Allan" Reed should be Alan Reed. (Thanks, Mike!) Page 177 / 1st Column: "this is [a] musical show." ** Page 201: (The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T). "Retig" should be Rettig. ** Page 203: (The Phantom Tollbooth) "Blank" should be Blanc. ** **(My thanks to Charles Ulrich for the above corrections) Page 226 (Index): Originally I felt it best to arrange the subheadings under "Hans Conried" chronologically, rather than alphabetically. It made more sense, or so I thought. Unfortunately, McFarland & Company did not agree with me and took it upon themselves to make some re-arrangements. The result was at least one subheading was separated from its intended placement. The "as the 'mark of Cain'" reference (corresponding to page 112) was supposed to follow the subheading for "Uncle Tonoose". The way it is now, it seems like someone was referring to Hans as the "mark of Cain", instead of Hans' sarcastic comment about one of his best remembered roles. |

I was deeply saddened by the news of the death of Alexander Rudolf Conried, Hans' youngest son. He passed away at his home in Los Angeles on January 16, 2003 at the age of 47. No other details were forthcoming. Alex was described by his siblings as "a free spirit with great panache and style." A tragic loss. Margaret Conried passed away at the age of 85 on November 12, 2002. She had been in failing health for some time. It wasn't long before the magnificent villa in the Hollywood hills was sold--the contents sold at a public auction. The Conried family has suffered a great deal and my heart and prayers are with them always. Their family values and their faith will keep them strong. |
Here's a bit of trivia: It was McFarland & Company, Inc. that saddled the book with the ungainly title it has today. The title I wanted for the book (which McFarland rejected) was Hans Conried: From Shakespeare to Jay Ward. I still think that would have been a good title. It's embarrassing, but I can't even remember the full title of the book most of the time! |
