#Quote
1I never really had any trouble getting along with anybody that I worked with and I think that makes a difference. I enjoyed everything I've ever done and when I look back I really have no regrets. It was a wonderful business.
2[in 1991 interview] I'm very grateful for a career that wasn't spectacular, but always made a living or filled in in-between. I have wonderful memories of it, but I don't miss it.
#Fact
1Interviewed in Tom Weaver's book "They Fought in the Creature Features" (McFarland & Co., 1995).
2Denning portrayed George Cooper, the husband of Lucille Ball, on CBS Radio's "My Favorite Husband" (1948-1951). The series was such a success that CBS executives offered Ball a TV deal with Denning, but she refused, insisting on husband Desi Arnaz as her TV husband.
3His character's name on CBS Radio's "My Favorite Husband" was changed from George Cugat to George Cooper later in 1948.
4During World War II, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served on a submarine as Yeoman 1st Class.
5After graduating from Woodbury College in Los Angeles, California, he joined his father in the garment business and worked his way up from office boy to vice president.
6He had a daughter with his first wife, Evelyn Ankers.
