ok....I searched around the forum and the internet and I can't get any solid intel on this.....

http://www.amazon.com/HILLERMAN-FREDERIC-VANDOME-MCBREWSTER-MILLER/dp/6132859152/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1297453424&sr=1-5

Is this a book on the Hig?

I looked all over the internet for intel, but I can't find a cover pic, incl going to the publishers site.

Anyone with book savvy have any intel??

....if the link doesn't work for some reason, go to the amazon book department and use this search string - "john hillerman FREDERIC P. VANDOME"

Its shows a copyright of 2010 (?) :?:

I liked Hillerman in (Around the world in 80 day's)1989 thought he did a fine job. :)

After some intensive reasearch, I found that John Hillerman does not live on a ranch but rather a quiet shady street in Houston. I sent him a lengthy fan letter with careful sincerity and discretion in the text and I recieved one back from Mr. Hillerman. He asked that I not share his address and is quite explicit about his privacy. The letter is brief and non-descript but his appreciation for enthusiasm after nearly 20 years is evidenced. Although he did not sign a photo, he did sign twice at the bottom, "Jonathan Q. Higgins," (ink stamp pawprint) "The Lads," then finally, John B. Hillerman.

If you must contact him, there are several sites that list his address but I prefer to keep his wishes and I do not mean to be greedy. At any rate, the correct address is the Bade street version.
Did you ask him if he was writing a book that would be great! :) :D

Hi--I'm new to the site, great to find you all!

I found a youtube posting of a scene with John Hillerman and Eileen Brennan, singing a Cole Porter song...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-TIquf6qH4

I couldn't pass that up...I hunted around and found it's from "At Long Last Love," from 1975. Which seems to be very hard to find, but I did...so for those who are interested, you can download it from extafilm (http://www.extafilm.com/). For a modest fee :roll:

(or for those who know where it can be found in better quality, please share...)

At any rate--the movie didn't get great ratings, but I for one found it delightful. Fluffy romantic comedy, and Mr. Hillerman's delivery is superb. Warning: the songs are catchy, you'll end up humming them...

The film "Hands of a Murderer" was shown on TV last night (in the UK) in which John Hillerman played Dr Watson to Edward Woodward's Sherlock Holmes. I was going to stay up and watch the whole thing, but it didn't finish till 1am and, to be honest, the film wasn't very good so I only watched the first twenty minutes or so (sorry John :oops:)

John was doing his British accent so it was a bit like watching Higgins's great grandfather! :)

I wonder if that film was the inspiration for "Holmes Is Where The Heart Is"?
