#father

My father-in-law was once Chairman of Military Affairs in the Senate, the latter part of the Wilson Administrations. He knew a lot about and was fond of the Army. ↗

My father's family came from Virginia and Philadelphia. He wasn't a brother who talked a lot. He was a workingman, a quiet, blue-collar dude. ↗

I worked with my son when he was much younger; we did L.A. Law together, where I played his father and he played a kid who was suing his father for alienation of affection or something. It was great. ↗

I grew up in a very open-minded family. My father died when I was very little, so my mother was really, really incredibly busy trying to provide for us. ↗

There was a ton of fighting between my mother and father. The kids would be thrown into the middle, to choose sides. ↗

Beware the cute, hot guy who kind of reminds you of the parent you don't get along with: your cold, distant father who left when you were a kid or your hot-tempered mother whom you could never please. ↗
