A classy gentleman in the true sense of the word.

His warmth and expertise was always welcome when encountered in
many a documentary on Hollywood's golden age and he will be missed.

sorry to hear of his passing. He added insight to some on camera interviews about old Hollywood and his studio Paramount Pictures. A pioneer like MGM's late Sam Marx who both saw it all.
