Here’s an inspiring, free-flowing conversation with this generation’s most gifted and dynamic actress-singer.
Linda Purl grew up in Japan and when she returned to the U.S. in her late teens as a trained actress, she quickly came to the attention of audiences nationwide in the long-running TV soap The Secret Storm.
That was the beginning of an incomparable career that has earned her hundreds of film and television credits including iconic roles in classic TV series (“Happy Days,” “The Waltons,” “Matlock”) and starring gigs in prime-time network series like “The Oath,” and “The Office."
In this interview, you'll hear Linda laugh and moan as Bob reminds her that he wrote and produced "another failed pilot,", as well as the series "Robin's Hoods," both starring Linda.
When she wasn’t in front of the cameras, Linda has been a regular on- and off-Broadway appearing in everything from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Merchant of Venice to The Year of Magical Thinking and The King and I.
Linda’s latest career moves have her making big waves as a recording artist and cabaret singer. With multiple solo concert appearances in New York, Los Angeles, and Tokyo, her CDs Midnight Caravan, Taking a Chance on Love, and Up Jumped Spring are destined to become classics.
