Beverly Washburn started acting in 1950 at the age of 6, and has not slowed down since. In part one, we talk about her youth, the challenges of being a child actor, and getting her start with the help of fabled stuntman and actor, Jock Mahoney. She tells me about Superman and the Mole-Men, working with the likes of Cecille B. DeMille, George Stevens, and Frank Capra, and her long friendship with the great Jack Benny. And, of course, we talk about Spider Baby, or the Maddest Story Ever Told, and about working with the legendary Lon Chaney, Jr.
