Art Hindle

Send us Fan MailIn March, Art Hindle will be saluted by his peers in the acting communuty with the Award of Excellence at the 20th anniversary of the ACTRA Awards.It is a well deserved salute to a much-admired actor and crusading guild member with close to 200 IMDb credits and at least as many stories to go with them.Over the years, I always sought out Art at industry functions just to hear again about his days on Dallas, E.N.G., "Porkys" and Paradise Falls and -- best of all -- his hair-raising adventures competing on Battle of the Network Stars.We went overtime on this podcast episode just to get all these great career highlights in, including a previous high honour he received -- having his caricature drawn by the legendary Mort Drucker in the pages of Mad magazine.Hear also about a part or two that got away, including a US network sitcom he was cast in with Kim Cattrall -- until some witch stole it from both of them!All this plus his early feature film break as a hockey player doubled on ice by former Toronto Maple Leaf Jim McKenny. Art Hindle: living the Canadian acting dream.
