My UnHollywood Family

June 29, 1978 will live on in the mind of one man indefinitely.

It remains a date burned upon his brain. In the mind of a young man who had just celebrated his 27th birthday two days before - Robert David Crane - the oldest child and oldest son of actor and radio personality, Bob Crane, this date will never leave his consciousness, and can never be forgotten. It is the date of his father's murder, the day the life of celebrated and beloved TV actor and star of Hogan's Heroes, Bob Crane, was destroyed by an awkward and ungainly man. A man dominated by envy and a desire for revenge, John Carpenter, a man who may have got away with premeditated murder.

Now, this once young man wants to set the record straight about the experiences he cannot forget, the losses that shaped him, and that continue their forward moving dark energy, where "closure" becomes an alluring falsehood, a tease and the most elegant and expansive of lies. This long overdue book sets the record straight about what really happened, as Robert Crane experienced and witnessed it firsthand.
