Since making her film debut in "D.O.A.", the 1950 sus- pense classic, Ms. Garland has starred in a wide variety of movies and TV programs which have won her many honours including a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, career achievement awards from Universities and industry organisations, and an Emmy Award nomination for "Best Dramatic Actress". Ms. Garland starred in some of TV's most prestigious dra- mas, such as "Playhouse 90" and "Ford Theatre", made numerous guest appearances in dramatic series and starred as a regular in "Decoy", in which she made tele- vision history in 1957 by becoming the first actress to play the title role of a dramatic series, as well as television's first policewoman. In 1974 Beverly was forever embraced by the hearts and minds of Ape fans everywhere for her sensational per- formance as the big, bad ‘Wanda’ in the fan-favourite Art by episode ‘The Interrogation’.

  • HERRMANN MUSIC in HAVE GUN WILL TRAVEL and OTHER CLASSIC CBS TELEVISION SERIES by Bill Wrobel
    HERRMANN MUSIC IN HAVE GUN WILL TRAVEL AND OTHER CLASSIC CBS TELEVISION SERIES By Bill Wrobel [April 2006 1st draft but some material added June 13, 2007 for Rawhide & Perry Mason] Have you ever watched the old classic CBS series such as Have Gun Will Travel, Gunsmoke, Rawhide, Perry Mason, and Twilight Zone and ever wondered how much of Bernard Herrmann’s music you heard in various episodes? I remember when I was seven years old and watched Paladin on Saturday nights for its first season run. While I was still not cognizant at the time of whom Bernard Herrmann was by name, I recall the excitement I felt watching the show (westerns were big, so to speak, or very popular at that general period on American television). I particularly liked Paladin, and then Matt Dillon (Gunsmoke). I also associated the CBS series with pleasure because of the music heard. I did not know Herrmann’s name because no credits were given at the end of the episodes (since the music was a collection of so-called “stock music” cues from various composers edited into each episode). But even back at that young age I felt drawn to the music. Let’s focus first on the Have Gun Will Travel series since the first three seasons (as I write this paper) are now available on dvd. Now: Bernard Herrmann did indeed write an original score for the pilot episode of Have Gun Will Travel starring Richard Boone perfectly cast as Paladin (although I heard, true or not, that Randolph Scott was first offered the role).
