First met Sammy Davis Jr. at the Circle Star Theatre in San
Francisco, California. I was the artist relations person who greeted the artist, showed
them around the theatre, took them to dinner, and made sure that they were happy.
Sammy and I did not hit it off too well in the beginning, but when I moved to
Los Angeles, we became friends.
Donjo Medlivine and I were at Sammy's Father's home in
Hollywood. Sammy's Father loved fishing. I had done a lot of fishing in my time,
so we had a great talk. Sammy stopped by for a visit and stayed for
dinner. We got to know each other and I saw a lot of Sammy and his wife
Altovise after that. He
is part of the stories I am putting into my book. More
will appear here in the future.
