William Sargent PART ONE (Divided Episode)

The subject of today’s episode is William Sargent, an actor, soldier and inventor best known for his appearances on classic television shows like Star Trek The Original Series, The Twilight Zone and Mission Impossible.

In this episode you will hear stories of such as Bill’s childhood escape from the third Reich, growing up as a refugee during the second world war, emigration and reinvention in the united states, service during the Korean war, and stories of learning his craft as an actor and getting started in Hollywood.

Our conversation with Mr. Sargent lasted for over two hours. As this length would prove onerous to many listeners we decided to release multiple versions of this episode. The full length episode of our conversation has already been released. The episode is also available divided into two episode of approximately one hour each. This is the first of those episodes.
