WALLY BERNS
The actor types this letter to Todd Axelrod, founder of the Gallery of History, honoring a request for photos and discussing the trajectory of his career in Hollywood
Typed Letter signed: "Wally" in black ink, 3p, 8½x11. No place, 1984 June 23. To "Dear Todd". In part: "Finally, feeling the time was right in the early 70's to make the big push, I got out of production, as it was taking up too much of my time, and went strictly for the acting career and the TV movie "I LOVE YOU, GOODBYE" was my first job using English dialogue…I found it very difficult to get work in TV at that time, as it is a different world with different demands for the actor…so I've been told. At any rate, after that, my television career began to blossom and I worked such shows as "THE INCREDIBLE HULK", "BUCK ROGERS", "SWITCH", "CHIPS", etc."  Actor Wally K.
