Coming soon to TV CONFIDENTIAL: Joan Van Ark on her stage background and the “bag of voices” that she draws on as a voice artist (including the voice of Spider-Woman); how the costumes of Joan’s on display at the Hollywood Museum are, in a way, an example of how Valene Ewing evolved as a character on KNOTS LANDING; and the advice that James Garner gave Joan early in her career. Both KNOTS LANDING and SPIDER-WOMAN celebrate their 40th anniversaries on television this season. The KNOTS LANDING lobby exhibit at the Hollywood Museum continues thru Wednesday 4/1. SPIDER-WOMAN is now streaming on demand on Disney+
