Vince Waldron is an Emmy-winning writer and author of Classic Sitcoms, which has been hailed as the definitive study of the genre. With pop legend Ronnie Spector, he coauthored Be My Baby, which Blitz magazine called "one of the three greatest rock'n'roll memoirs."
"Vince Waldron lovingly and very thoroughly recounts the history of
The Dick Van Dyke Show." --Los Angeles Daily News
"The Official Dick Van Dyke Show Book is the best reference book on
my shelf. It makes it even more fun to watch the show, if that's
possible." --Morey Amsterdam
"A compelling narrative. . . . Waldron waltzes through the series'
story as gracefully as Van Dyke sidestepped his living room
ottoman." --Entertainment Weekly
"It was the very best time of my life and Vince's book helps me
recall every treasured moment. Thanks, Vince!" --Dick Van Dyke
"The definitive history...offers a wealth of backstage anecdotes."
--Emmy Magazine
"Vince's tribute to our show offers as accurate a snapshot of the
series--and the era that begat it--as any I've seen." --Sheldon
Leonard, Executive Producer
"What an unexpected pleasure to read a book on a subject about
which I thought I knew everything, only to find out that I didn't.
A very serious contribution to understanding what really were the
best years of my theatrical life. I'd say it was a wonderfully
scholarly work--but I won't, because I don't want to scare people
away from a book that's as much fun to read as this is." --Carl
Reiner, producer/creator of The Dick Van Dyke Show
"Wonderful. You got all the facts down in the right order. No
embellishments. All the truth. Somebody finally got the whole story
right." --Rose Marie
