At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

Dennis Weaver, who died of cancer in 2006, was a talented actor who left his indelible mark in three hit TV shows: Gunsmoke (CBS, 1955-1964; 1974), Gentle Ben (NBC, 1967-1969), and McCloud (NBC, 1970-1977). Before and after those iconic programs, Weaver had some hits and misses and some self-doubts about leaving the security of the long-running Gunsmoke series after almost a decade.

Some included small screen appearances in a compelling episode of The Twilight Zone, and the groundbreaking TV-movie Duel (Steven Spielberg's first full-length film). This is his story.
