Mark Rothman
"In 'Double Indemnity' Edward G. Robinson said, 'You know why I'm so good at this? 'Cause I got this little man inside me and he can always spot a phony claim.' Well, I have little man inside of me and it has everything to do with knowing how an audience is going to react to material if it is performed right. The little man has never let me down."
Person

Pat Hitchcock

"'Alfred Hitchcock Presents' really brought my father to the public because they got to see him. Often a writer would turn in a script for one of his lead-ins, and Norman Lloyd, the Associate Producer, would say, 'Hitch will never say this!' But he loved it. He got to show his sense of humor, and he used to say, 'if you didn't have a sense of humor about anything that happened in life, you may just as well quit.'"

Person

Hazel Shermet

"I'm proud of the fact that I was able to work in all the mediums and raise two kids, and be married to somebody that was working all the time. I hope people remember me as professional, as versatile, and as somebody who loved every minute of it. I hope I gave a lot of joy."

Person

Barry Livingston
"I was sort of the ragamuffin, the kid who was not the rich kid's child. I was sort of the poverty-stricken one who couldn't afford braces and glasses. Terrible haircut. And slowly that became my signature, being the kind of the goofy-looking kid next door, and now that's all the rage. Nerds control the world."   
Person

Dick Askin
"As a television executive, it's important to listen. I've heard secretaries come out with some of the most profound observations on projects that all of us have missed. They'll say something and I'll think, 'They're right! I never thought about it that way.'"
Person

Bob Simon
"It was television coverage that made it impossible for the Americans to stay in Vietnam… I mean the fact that the people in Tahrir Square could be watching the revolution in Indonesia, and then their own revolution on Al-Jazeera… this has become a crucial part of world politics. It is determining fates as much as anything else. Important things that happen like the Arab Spring, wouldn't have happened without television."
