"For 16 years, millions of Americans welcomed Gavin MacLeod into their living rooms every Saturday night as the leading, lovable father-figure of The Love Boat at the height of TV's boom years. The consummate storyteller, Gavin worked with countless stars, such as Cary Grant, Steve McQueen, Gregory Peck, Bette Davis, Frank Sinatra, Ethel Merman, Ella Fitzgerald, Ronald Reagan, Milton Berle, and Fred Astaire. From his humble theatrical beginnings in upstate New York, to Radio City Music Hall and on to Hollywood, Gavin MacLeod was on the fast track to success. However, a few hard life lessons--like dealing with a divorce--taught Gavin that the key to happiness was only through a deep faith in God, and he feels his work for Christ is more important than any award. Three years later his remarriage proved that a great struggle can culminate in a happy ending. Gavin MacLeod is best known as Captain Stubing on The Love Boat, and as Murray Slaughter on The Mary Tyler Moore Show."--Provided by publisher.
