He was turned down by the small-minded bank manager but got respect later on when he helped rescue a girl who was trapped in a hole in the ground. (This story was retold on Little House on the Prairie when the Olsen's adopted daughter fell in a hole and was rescued by Billy Barty.

What is remarkable is that these episodes never bore, regardless of how many times one watches them. Michale Dunn was truly remarkable in capturing the essence of the Loveless character -- a brilliant, evil man, with childlike characteristics.<br /><br /><br />One cannot mention Michael Dunn and WWW without mentioning the other brilliant actor on that show -- Ross Martin, Secret Service Agent (and Jim West's partner) Artemus Gordon. His ability to play any character demanded of him, regardless of gender, was repeatedly put to the test by the scripts that had him disguise himself as other individuals. He, too, is worth aq great but not forgotten entry.booklover54https://www.blogger.com/profile/05047488315969169131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2305571058310227787.post-35600546963986300042010-01-31T17:03:16.002-05:002010-01-31T17:03:16.002-05:00This book, Big Life of a Little Man is absolutely ...This book, Big Life of a Little Man is absolutely excellent.!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2305571058310227787.post-15830469932775045722009-12-17T13:34:38.210-05:002009-12-17T13:34:38.210-05:00Saturday, December 12th, 2009

His first cousin, Sherry Kelly, has written a new book about him called The Big Life of a Little Man: Michael Dunn Remembered, using interviews with his friends and associates and her own memories of growing up with Dunn, as well as writings by her aunt (Dunn's mother) and Dunn himself. I just finished reading her book. She offers compelling descriptions of his background, from his time studying to be a Capuchin monk to the mystery surrounding his possible work in espionage for the U.S. government. A number of strange and unanswered questions remain about his unfortunate and early demise, and Kelly sets these out clearly, as well. The book tells a poignant story of the man behind the genius (intellectual and artistic) and how, with courage and varying levels of success, he fought to overcome his disability with the support of his family. The book will be widely available in February, but it can be ordered now directly from the publisher. I thought you might want to know about this new Wild Wild West-related publication!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2305571058310227787.post-60030289013492167722009-02-22T13:09:00.000-05:002009-02-22T13:09:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Leona Raisinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07290727530095853843noreply@blogger.com
