Recently departed actor M. Emmet Walsh was known for (and took great pride) in portraying his characters so effectively that he disappeared into the roles. It wasn't him "playing a part," but becoming a totally believable parole officer, private eye, or some other person. So…who was he?
Meet Michael Emmet Walsh, the person, in a classic episode of Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast. Turns out he was a jock, par golfer, a poetry buff, and funny as hell. He also reveals his secret weapon he used in promoting himself early in his career: his background in business and marketing.
