Museum of Tolerance to honor Clint Eastwood in November

Eastwood

My two favorite male actors are Tom Hanks and Clint Eastwood.

One of my old reporters (Woody Woodburn)  recently honored me by writing a column about what it was like working with me at The Desert Trail newspaper in the 1980s. His column ran in the Ventura Star daily newspaper three weeks ago.

I was really humbled when he compared Clint Eastwood to me – noting the hard outer shell disguises the caring person within.

Clint Eastwood, whose most famous movie roles were trigger-happy vigilantes but whose directorial work has shown a more open-minded world view, will receive an award from the Museum of Tolerance this fall.
