Coming soon to TV CONFIDENTIAL: Academy Award-winning and Golden Globe Award-winning actor GEORGE CHAKIRIS on the back story of WEST SIDE STORY, and some of the subtle differences between the classic 1961 movie and the original stage production; working alongside the incomparable Elaine Stritch in the national stage production of COMPANY; co-starring with Barbara Carrera in the “dream season” of DALLAS; what sparked his interest in designing jewelry; and the importance of trusting your instincts, no matter what you do in life. George’s memoir, MY WEST SIDE STORY, is now available in hardcover and as an eBook through Lyons Press
