"By the summer of 1952 Steven, with Meisner's assistance, had landed a small
role in a Jewish repertory company on the Lower East Side that featured the
legendary Yiddish actress Molly Picon. He had four lines of dialogue in
Yiddish, which took him forever to learn. He never could master the accent
and was fired after four performances, band not long after, with Steven's
stint at the Neighbourhood Playhouse coming to an end, Meisner urged him to
try out for the prestigious and even harder to get into Herbert BERGHOF
Studio." {Steve McQueen, Marc Eliot page 27} |
