Friday, July 19 marked the tenth anniversary of the passing of Emmy Award-winning actor and entertainment icon James Garner. TV Confidential marks this occasion by replaying our special program-length tribute to Jim that originally aired in August 2014, featuring highlights from some of our conversations with the people who knew and worked with him, including Jon Winokur (co-author of The Garner Files, Jim’s memoirs of his career in film and television), Emmy winners Roy Huggins (creator of Maverick, co-creator of The Rockford Files) and Stephen J. Cannell (co-creator of The Rockford Files), and a few other surprises. We’ll also hear from James Garner himself, in the form of two rarely heard interviews: a 1962 television appearance on Here’s Hollywood (audio courtesy Phil Gries of Archival Television Audio) and a 1996 radio appearance on The Ronn Owens Program (KGO-AM/San Francisco, audio courtesy Ronn Owens).
