NO STRINGS: IN SEARCH OF DICKIE JONES (HARDCOVER EDITION) by Ann Snuggs
In an era when aspiring actors desperately sought studio connections,
young Dickie Jones did not. Possessor of a load of multiple talents and
under the guidance of his mother, he moved from studio to studio –
dancing, acting, riding. Dickie had that most desirable gift for every
actor – believability.
In his independence, Dickie walked off
with one of the plum juvenile roles of his time – the voice of Pinocchio
for Walt Disney. As he geared up to sing “No Strings on Me” he might
have been singing his personal theme song.
In NO STRINGS: IN
SEARCH OF DICKIE JONES, Ann Snuggs has shared Dick’s stories from his
days on the silver screen in combination with her research on the films
and people involved. Come search for the real Dick “Dickie” Jones.
