  • Trivia
    According to a story that made the rounds in the early '60s, one day Huggins called to his wife, Adele Mara, to come into their bedroom and take his photograph. When she arrived with the camera and asked why, he replied, "Because I just had the greatest idea ever for a TV series [The Fugitive (1963)] and I want to preserve the moment". He framed the photo and hung it over his desk for his entire career.
  • Quotes
    [addressing the widely held belief that the 1954 murder case involving Dr. Samuel Sheppard was the basis for his TV series The Fugitive (1963) ] I don't care whether people say "The Fugitive" was based on the Sheppard case. The only reason I deny it is that it happens to be the truth.
