DANIEL BOONE's #1 Son never saw Fess Parker's DAVY CROCKETT! Family Secrets Revealed by Darby Hinton

Child actor Darby Hinton, Israel Boone on DANIEL BOONE, began work before he was even a year old! It's been an amazing adventure and it continues with meaty roles in such popular programs as the History Channel's miniseries, TEXAS RISING, and an annual appearance in the long running Beverly Hills play, THE MANSION. Darby was born into an acting family and shares a gift for storytelling and a love of show business. How he landed the star making role of Israel Boone is one of Hollywood's most amazing stories. In this interview from 2016 at The Autry, you'll find out why young Darby and Fess Parker bonded so closely. It's not just because their birthdays are days apart. Darby was born August 19, 1957, and Fess was born August 16, 1924. You'll relive with Darby his memory about being in a runaway wagon on THE BIG VALLEY with a future Oscar winner holding the reins. You'll also hear from Darby of his meeting with a painted blue (all over) Bill Paxton while on location in Mexico and many other tales of movie making and family fun.
