SPECIAL - CALLING ALPHA CONTROL: ANGELA CARTWRIGHT & BILL MUMY
EPISODE SYNOPSIS: We welcome two very special guests to Alpha Control: Angela Cartwright & Bill Mumy. Although well-known to LIS fans as the talented young actors who played Penny & Will Robinson on the classic series, BOTH performers have played numerous roles in dozens of movies & TV shows and between them racked up hundreds of appearances on both the Big & Small screen. But if that wasn't enough, these 'gifted go-getters' are ALSO multi-talented artists in a wide variety of creative fields. Angela's life-long passion for art & photography, led her to pursue a second career as an artist, as well as a jewelry & clothing designer; eventually establishing her own art studio, which can be explored online at Angela Cartwright Studio.com.
Bill on the other hand, has also achieved great success as a gifted musician, singer, song writer, voice artist & producer. In addition to his prolific catalog of solo songs & recordings, Bill is the co-founder of the off-beat rock duo Barnes & Barnes and veteran member of the band America. In his latest musical endeavor, he teamed up with musicians Vicki Peterson of the Bangles and John Cowsill of the Beach Boys, to write and record as the rock group, "ACTION SKULLS"; which has released two critically acclaimed albums; 2017's 'Angel Hear' & 2020's 'A Different World'.
What's more, both actors are published authors. Angela's titles include her award-winning coffee table book Styling the Stars: Lost Treasures from the Twentieth Century Fox Archive, & her Art books titled: Mixed Emulsions, In This House & In This Garden among others. She also conceived and collaborated on The Sound of Music Family Scrapbook along with her fellow 'Von Trapp' family siblings. Likewise, Bill's lasting fascination with comic books propelled him into a career creating & writing scores of them for both Marvel & DC. And in the early 1990's, he authored many issues of the celebrated "Lost in Space" comic book series for Innovation Comics. Later in 2005, he followed up with the acclaimed 360-page graphic novel, "Lost in Space: Voyage to the Bottom of the Soul".
With all that going on, it's hard to believe this 'talented twosome' have also co-written three other terrific books: their first was their fantastic pictorial-memoir "Lost and Found in Space", followed by "On Purpose", a sci-fi adventure novel for young adults & finally their latest collaboration - the updated & expanded edition - "Lost and Found in Space 2". As you can imagine, I've got a lot of questions for them both. So, get set to 'Blast Off' for this fascinating conversation with LIS Stars - Angela Cartwright & Bill Mumy
