THE
REVIEWS!!!
Leonard
Maltin:
If you grew up watching THE MICKEY MOUSE CLUB,
as I did, you'll enjoy learning about Lonnie's show-business
adventures from childhood on. He talks about early days on live and filmed
television, how he was chosen to join the Club, what it was like on the
set and around the Disney studio and what he's been up to ever since --
including scores of stage and television appearances."
Amazon.com reader review: Thank you Lonnie for sharing
your story. The photos are amazing, and it was wonderful to learn about
your incredible career (and life) before, during, and after your time as a
Mouseketeer. I am so glad you have decided you are not in retirement yet!
Anyone who enjoys Disney history or fascinating biographies should buy a
copy of this book.
Sam Genneway (Samland's Disney Adventures):
"Of
course, I was most interested in events and impressions related to the
Mickey Mouse Club. The book goes well beyond those experiences, as it
should since it represents some 60 years of performing
professionally...the book gives a unique perspective on one of the most
influential television shows in history."
"RateItAll": "Burr talks about how it feels to
have brought happiness to so many people of multiple generations --
since that original show ran in every decade into the 2000s. By turns serious, funny and charming the book is a must-read for
every fan of the Mickey Mouse Club, 50s and 60s TV and film and of the
life of a working actor who is also an intelligent, well-educated man,
unsparing of himself and -- unlike many 'show biz' memoirs -- discreet
about others."
www.originalmmc.com:
"This
an easy book to read... After a few chapters Tristram Shandy came
to my mind, though I think the author would regard Proust rather than
Sterne as an exemplar. His frequent discursive asides, which always just
manage to meander back to the mainstream at chapter's end, are his own
unique style however, as are bawdy anecdotes...

4th Birthday, 40th Birthday
And then you realize
that it is not forever
that it is not fair
that it is not
a ride on a pony
a birthday cake
a romance.
And then you realize
that you are alone
that you will die
that your dreams are
whiffs
the spider’s last web.
And then you realize
that they lied to you
(not from guile but fear)
that you must find
what truth there is
for yourself.
And then you realize
that sound and sight
fury and malaise
are but one.
And then you realize
that you must create
a ride on a pony
a birthday cake
romance.
1982
nuance
In the canebrake
the tiger
hot breath and lightning.
Behind the door
the woman
cold breath
and tears.
At the handle
the man
breathing
alone.
1975
The Pattern Least Taken
That fifth bird from the end
not quite in sequence
is mine to cherish.
The pinkish-orange sky
met solemnly by the rolling
gray-blue ocean crests,
frames all sight.
The matting of the hills
and horizon are transients
such as we, you and I.
The artists are the waves
and that one lone bird.
Seacliff,CA
- 1980
