My Classic Radio Interviews With The Stars Volume One

From 1994 to 2008, I was the host of The Michael Dante Classic Celebrity Talk Show in Palm Springs, California. My wife, Mary Jane and I recorded 265 captivating radio interviews with the top classic celebrities from the world of entertainment and sports. Together, known as 'Team Dante,' we developed and co-produced a unique one-of-a-kind radio show. This exceptional collection is a personal experience; an insight into the lives of some of the world's most creative, intelligent and famous people.

There were two things I learned very quickly about hosting a radio show with celebrity stars from motion pictures, television, stage, sports and entertainment. First and foremost, you have to do your homework. Be prepared to know who you are talking with, their background, accomplishments, likes and dislikes. Second, is listening. I wish I had learned earlier in my career as an actor, the art of listening. I learned along the way, how important it was to listen and be less concerned about what I had to say. I learned that when you listen, to listen more.

I was fortunate during my career in Hollywood and beyond, to get to know and work with so many outstanding, legendary people, to call them my friends and to be able to share our conversations with these nostalgic interviews. The stories about their lives and careers have been preserved herein for all generations to enjoy, in perpetuity. Some are still with us and some are gone, but none will ever be forgotten.
