Summary
Actress Angie Dickinson and Professor Gerald Early on this edition of Fresh Air. Angie Dickinson played an undercover cop in the TV series Police Woman from 1974-78. Her film roles include Dressed to Kill, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, Pretty Maids all in a Row, and Ocean's Eleven which she made in 1960 with the Rat Pack: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. (There's a new remake of Ocean's Eleven with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Don Cheadle.) Two new Rat Pack CDs have been reissued: The Rat Pack Live at the Sands, which includes their previously unreleased performance from 1963 Eee-O-11, a collection of their classic tunes from 1950s and 60s. Gerald Early is Merle Kling Professor of Modern Letters at Washington University in St. Louis. He is also a former commentator for Fresh Air. Early is the editor of the new book, The Sammy Davis Jr. Reader: The Life and Times of the Last Great Hipster - from Vaudeville to Vegas - as seen Through the Eyes of His Public.
