Slim Pickens' daughter, Daryle Ann Lindley-Giardino, shares the laughter and her Father's amazing story from working as a rodeo clown dodging bulls to an in demand actor who was just as gifted with drama as he was with his comedic roles.
Following the interview is a special TV episode featuring Slim in an early 1956 appearance as one of the bad guys on ANNIE OAKLEY, "Annie and the Leprechauns."
From Rex Allen's fast riding comical sidekick in series of B westerns, to riding a bomb for Stanley Kurbrick in DR. STRANGELOVE, to garnering big laughs in the Mel Brooks classic BLAZING SADDLES, Slim did it all and made it all look easy.
A roomful of fans at the Autry Museum's crowded restaurant were treated to an overview of western comedies on December 17, 2014, when Slim's daughter, Daryle Ann, joined Rob Word for A WORD ON WESTERNS. She brought a rollicking scrapbook of family memories and memorable movie moments of her Father for all of his fans. Slim was born Lewis Bert Lindley, Jr., June 29, 1919, in Kingsberg, California, and died Nov 20, 1983.
