Episode #194: David Pressman (Lawrence Pressman, Lanna Saunders)
Manage episode 432808195 series 2840053
Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to actor David Pressman and both delving into both of his actor parents, Lawrence Pressman and Lanna Saunders. Like our previous guest, Christopher Murray, David seemed destined to become an actor – not just because of his parents but also because his grandparents and even his great grandfather were actors as well – going all the way back to the Russian/Ukrainian stage before he emigrated to America. We are talking generations!
David spoke to us about his time growing up in Los Angeles with his mother Lanna who appeared on more than 500 episodes of the popular soap opera Days of Our Lives as Marie Horton and his father who is still going strong at age 85. Depending on how old you are, you will know Lawrence’s best from his roles in Nine to Five, Mulligan’s Stew, M*A*S*H, Doogie Howser and so much more. We also talk about both of his parents love of theater and their time on Broadway, working on the stage prior to their move out to Los Angeles when David was seven years old.
Along the way we speak about the such things as the CIA, Robby Benson’s gang film Walk Proud, the difference between overtime and golden time on set, a fear of flying that led to a marriage, partying with Steve Coogan on the set of Tropic Thunder, famous LA restaurants, Jane Fonda’s kindness at a dinner party and much more. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and everyone has a story. Take a listen.
