This installment of "Know Your Staff" from September 12, 1983, features director Hal Gurnee and his dog Bert. The segment tells the story. What follows is a collection of 42 photos acquired over the years. Not the greatest quality, and if sharper images show up, I'll rework this video. The 42 guests are presented in alphabetical order: Alan Alda, Muhammed Ali, F. Lee Bailey, Tony Bennett, Sandra Bernhard, George Burns, Johnny Carson, Charo, Clarence Clemmons, Tim Conway, Billy Crystal, Bo Derek, Phyllis Diller, Phil Donahue, Jane Fonda, Teri Garr, Boy George, Gene Hackman, Tom Hanks, Goldie Hawn, Pee Wee Herman, Andy Kaufman, Diane Keaton, Mickey Mantle, Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, Willie Nelson, Tony Randall, Burt Reynolds, Diane Sawyer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Selleck, Paul Shaffer, Charlie Sheen, Martin Sheen, Howard Stern, Leonard Tepper, Cheryl Tiegs, Tina Turner, Mike Wallace, Mr. Whipple, and Vanessa Williams. re the soundtrack: The WMDB would play Rufus Thomas's "Walking the Dog" after nearly every segment of "Stupid Pet Tricks" and "My Dog Bob." So I thought it appropriate to use it here.
