Personal Quote:

"Here's a midget part", [producers] say. "Mike's available". Then they soft-soap me about what a great [actor] I am. I don't want to play Charlton Heston parts, but there are a lot of roles I can do. See more »

Trivia:

Phoebe Dorin, Dunn's singing partner and The Wild Wild West co-star, is extensively interviewed about their relationship in Tom Weaver's book "Science Fiction Confidential" (McFarland & Co., 2002). See more »
