Coming soon to TV CONFIDENTIAL: Carol Ford and Linda Groundwater, co-authors (along with Dee Young) of BOB CRANE: The Definitive Biography, a deep dive into the life and career of the beloved radio icon and Hogan’s Heroes star that attempts to balance the scales of perception by providing a complete picture of who Crane was… and just as important, who he wasn’t. The book includes interviews with more than 200 people who knew Crane personally and better than most, including family members, friends, school mates, acting colleagues, radio industry colleagues, and the addiction counselor that Crane sought out and worked with in the weeks and months before his tragic murder. Available in hardcover, softcover, and as an eBook wherever books are sold online, and as an audiobook through Audible
