Stories and insight in the world of showbiz and beyond.
As my interview on Rockit Radio and the interview with Dee Dee of Dick and Dee is no longer on the schedule I have deleted the two posts that made that announcement. For some great rock radio, I recommend that you continue to listen. That's http://rockitradio.net.

The winner of five Emmys and 15 Emmy nominations, Lloyd created The Lloyd Thaxton Show in the 60’s. It was the highest rated musical show in the country for eight years. His fans, now the baby boomers of the 2000’s, remember his clever way of making music visual while presenting the most famous rock stars of the era. Lloyd was one of the founders of Tiger Beat magazine. Following The Lloyd Thaxton Show, he hosted numerous network game shows, an ABC radio talk show and the variety show Showcase ’68 on NBC-TV. For eighteen years he was writer, producer and director of the high-rated national infotainment TV show “Fight Back! With David Horowitz” and writer-producer-director of over 200 segments on NBC-TV’s “The Today Show.” Lloyd wrote, produced and directed Mansion of Mystery, 131 tongue-in-cheek radio dramas for the Mobil Oil Company, wrote and produced the reality based Speak Up America for NBC-TV, directed America’s Funniest People on ABC-TV and created and produced the syndicated sports game show Pro-Fan. Lloyd’s latest book (2003) is Stuff Happens (and then you fix it), coauthored with award winning motivational speaker John Alston.

Whatever happened to Kam Nelson...I know she married Bob Seagren. Then I moved out of L.A. and have no idea what happened after that (in general...ha ha). Leaving L.A. was a mistake, but that's another story. Is Kam alive and well? Still married? How many kids? Would love to see a picture of her. dmason48@att.net
