...

wn to my high school after much gentle pestering by me over a period of months (he was working as I recall doing voice-overs at NBC along with his famous AT 40 show). Casey truly opened up during the interview, and went over many long forgotten morsels of his TV and radio beginnings and his influences in the industry. My own interview skills were (admittedly) a bit rough (I was only 16 years old), but Casey didn't seem to care a bit and made every effort to peel back the layers of his take on the business and his opinions. As many know, Casey almost never granted any interviews during his long and amazing career. If you search online you will see that Casey remained a very private person through his life, and it was truly an honor to have met and interviewed him while I was just a teenager. Casey will be dearly missed - in so many ways he was the epitome of a professional and one of the most talented voice artists in the world. I found this old video a few weeks ago and transferred it to DVD so that everyone can enjoy perhaps a better peek behind the curtain of the amazing Casey Kasem. Enjoy!
