If My Memoir Serves Me Well

Gary Warren

They say everyone’s got one book in them. Well, I haven’t… not anymore! Introduction These recollections cover the time from the very early 1960s until after my last significant acting role. After that I pulled a disappearing act and became a regular bloke for the most part. The transition from child/youth actor through to adult is notoriously difficult, some have succeeded, some spectacularly so. Some have stumbled along and sadly, some have fallen. I chose to take a break, which I’m still on. I’ve been the subject of many 'where are they now?' articles and musings. Well, I’m here now, writing this. I have led an exquisitely wonderful life hence forth. I have been married to my absolute soul mate for over forty years and have two amazing and extremely talented kids, a totally brilliant son-in-law and a fab little granddaughter who is off the scale bright and gorgeous. So it’s all good. But my musings on those magical years of the 1960s and 1970s, I believe might be of some interest. I’m sure The Railway Children, in particular holds massive fascination, being one of the most beloved British films of, dare I say, all time. Considering it was the directorial debut of Lionel Jeffries, who was, up until then, an actor, is indeed a remarkable achievement. Music has always been my abiding passion so I’ve named the chapters appositely. It certainly was a fun time… but, back then I had to go to school sometimes too, never mind these obstacles can occur. Oh, and If you’re wondering why I can remember all the music references and dates in such detail it’s because it has all stayed with me over the years. I can’t remember what I had for lunch yesterday but I can sing all eleven verses of Bob Dylan’s Desolation Row for you, if you’d like… (For Info email: ifmymemoir@yahoo.com) Duration - 9h 38m.
