The Golden Age

Of Hollywood

And Broadway

The Legacy Of Robert Allen

Ted Baehr with Richard E. Defay

I am excited to tell you about my newest book. This book is not only about my father, who was a star on Broadway and in 62 movies including his famous Texas Ranger Westerns, but it is also about how actors can navigate the entertainment industry. I was honored to write this book, as my 47th book that I’ve written or contributed significantly, because of the meaning and purpose behind it. I believe readers will be enriched by reading about Old Hollywood.

Behind the Scenes of the Golden Age of Hollywood and Broadway: The Legacy of Robert Allen takes readers on a captivating journey through the Golden Age of Hollywood and Broadway theater, as told through the lens of a reporter in candid interviews and Dr. Ted Baehr's personal recollections of his late father, Robert Bob "Tex" Allen, a once-celebrated figure in the entertainment world. This heartfelt reflection not only uncovers the glamour and excitement of a bygone era with fascinating "inside" stories and beautiful photographs-some never seen before—but also offers cautionary lessons about the fleeting nature of fame and fortune.
