Edit
  • Trivia
    During the early 1950s his thriving career foundered as he was dropped without explanation by Warner Bros., after a federal agent had told the studio Sherman was suspected of Communist ties. He said he wasn't a Communist, but he knew people like John Garfield who'd been blacklisted, and he stood beside them. His film career was seriously damaged by Hollywood's Communist "red scare," but he later rebounded as a successful director of such television series as 77 Sunset Strip (1958), "The Waltons" (1972)_, Doctors' Hospital (1975), Baretta (1975) and Trapper John, M.D. (1979).
  • Quotes
    [on Joan Crawford and the book "Mommie Dearest"] Christina [Crawford's daughter, Christina Crawford] hurt her mother's image a lot, but at least not while Joan was still alive. Bette Davis wasn't so fortunate, or maybe I should say she was more fortunate. She had to endure the hurt, but anyway she was there to defend herself and to go on the offensive. I think I knew Joan as well as anyone ever did, but I honestly don't know how Joan would have handled "Mommie Dearest" if Christina had published it while she was still alive. She would have been heartbroken, but I don't think she would have just fallen apart. She was strong, but the Joan I knew was a very, very vulnerable person. I think it would have depended on her health, but because she cared so much about what her fans thought, she would have done something if she could.
