Circus of the Stars


We took the elephants out to LA several times to work the old "Circus of the Stars" TV Show. One year they kept all the animals at the fairgrounds in Northridge, a pretty handy place for the celebrities to practice. Barbara became chummy with Jane Powell who was to present Darrell Wallen's ponies.
This picture was taken some time later after Ms. Powell and her husband Dickie Moore had seen the Big Apple Circus performance at Lincoln Center. They later took us out to dinner and the highlight of the evening was the telling of Parley Baer stories. As I recall Moore and Parley had both been active in Union activities, Screen Actors Guild or some such.
