I've never lost my appetite for acting; it's innovative and challenging.

And I did Batman, too. I did Mr. Freeze. I get more mail for him than anything I've ever done.

But I went to the University of Texas in the 30s, and while there I learned to ride. Mostly polo ponies.

I was an original member of the Actors' Studio.

I always wanted to tell stories and act.

No, I never thought of it in those terms. I used to go into agents' offices and they'd have pictures of these handsome movie men and I knew I'd never be up there. I'm a journeyman actor. I didn't think about stardom.

Well, I've maybe gotten 200 requests for interviews about Marilyn, and I just decided I'm gonna do my own.
