I found your article on Richard Chamberlain very interesting. I remember falling in love with him as Dr. Kildare, watching him in The Thorn Birds, mad seeing a wonderful television production of his performance in Hamlet. When I had the opportunity to see him live as Professor Higgins in My Fair Lady in Philadelphia, I didn't let it pass me. Chamberlain is a top-notch performer. When he came back to Philadelphia as Captain Von Trapp Von Trapp could refer to:
  • Georg Ritter von Trapp and Maria von Trapp of the Trapp family (see The Sound of Music)
  • The von Trapp Children, great-grandchildren of Georg and Maria von Trapp
  • Renata von Trapp, a fictional opera singer portrayed by Jennifer Saunders
 in The Sound of Music, I again absolutely had to see his performance.

After the performance there were four of us (my boyfriend and I and a lady with her daughter) who waited in the cold for about 20 minutes to get his autograph autograph

. When he came from the theater he walked right past us, and when we asked for an autograph he just said, "I can't," got in his limo, and left. At that moment I lost a lot of respect for him.
