I spent two months with House and his wife Lucy back in 2000 helping him with his really insightful book on his autobiography. His eyesight was failing and so he would write out what he wanted and I typed it on the computer for him and helped that way. It was a great two months and both he and Lucy were marvelous people. His book, Another Side of Hollywood, is a good reading about what life was like for this working actor (and also includes the history of his dad who was a star in the silent movies). It shows that an actor's life is not all glamor and money, but a struggle at times to make ends meet and raise a family. Good reading and a fine actor in his many western and other roles. Many may not know when he removed his toupe he was the original Mr. Clean in those old commercials.
