My Hero Is a Duke...of Hazzard Michael Murray Edition

In 1979 I ran away from my home in New Orleans. I went to California in search of Shaun Cassidy whom I had a major crush on since middle school. I had a one way Greyhound bus ticket with only seven dollars in my pocket. Nothing or no one was going to stop me from pursuing that dream. Two days later, I was homeless in Hollywood. I met a male who told me how to get into the studios to find Shaun. I went to Warner Brothers Studios and was being arrested for trespassing. I recognized the place I'd seen in the television show Wonder Woman and was excited to go near it. A security guard stopped me. I'd never seen the Dukes of Hazzard tv show, I did not know who John Schneider was nor had he met me in the past. He just happened to be on a break. John walked toward us seeing that I was in trouble and told the officer that I was with him. I was scared, I was hungry and a jail cell was the last place I wanted to go. John saved my life that day. He invited me to watch him work, introduced me to the entire cast and at the end of the day invited me to come back anytime. "Just have security call me" he said as I was leaving. I found a job as a live in Nanny for Director Robert Lieberman and went to watch the Dukes film everyday by Johns invite. John and I lost contact after he and Tom left the show. In 2012 I wrote my first book. "My Hero is a Duke..of Hazzard. The Autobiography of a teen runaway in Hollywood". For the reason that I wanted to share my story of how I was treated like family when John Schneider befriended me on the Dukes set. After the controversy about the flag, I have made it my mission to continue the Dukes of Hazzard Legacy. Now 2021, I have written over 20 Editions to honor the show, the cast, the crew, the car that became my first home in Burbank. Dukes fans like Michael Murray helps me to continue that Legacy in this Edition of MY HERO IS A DUKE... OF HAZZARD.
