Why Glenn Ford enjoyed starring in Cade's County

TVC 687.3: Peter Ford, son of screen legends Glenn Ford  and Eleanor Powell and the author of Glenn Ford: A Life, talks to Ed about how his dad used his star power to hire directors and actors on Cade’s County (CBS, 1971-1972) with whom he’d worked before, including George Marshall, Leo Penn, Edgar Buchanan, Barbara Rush, and Broderick Crawford; how James Woods saved Peter’s life in 1976 while the two of them filmed a scene together for “Sins of Thy Father,” an episode of Barnaby Jones; and some of the notable people who hired Peter during his twenty-year career as a building contractor, including Don Simpson, Frank Gehry, Blake Edwards, George Clooney, Sally Kellerman, Mary Kay Place, and Steve Tisch. Glenn Ford: A Life is available wherever books are sold through University of Wisconsin Press.
