2. Marvin was a good guy. |
|
He helped a lot of people, and was eccentric as hell (making him endlessly entertaining to watch).

He was "appointment" TV, I always tried to catch his commentary.

7. Michel Serrault was a French Actor most known for La Cage Aux Folles |
|
Marvin Zindler was famous in Texas mostly, as a TV Journalist. He was responsible for bringing a lot of attention to the Chicken Ranch outside of LaGrange, TX. The Chicken Ranch was a "Bawdy House" and was immortalized by both ZZ Top in their song "La Grange" and in the Musical "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas"
If you EVER saw Marvin Zindler, even just once, you would remember him......
