My Father and My Mother 1968
CBS Playhouse
George Schaefer, director
Rowland Vance and Adrienne Luraschi, associate directors


Ned, a New York magazine editor, tries to escape the responsibilities of
his rocky marriage, the neediness of his two teen daughters and especially
the agony of putting his autistic son into an institution by thinking back on his
boyhood in Massachusetts. As he returns to that life as an adult—walking into
scenes of the 1940s with his parents as an adult—he realizes that life always
was a challenging proposition. The boomeranging back and forth in time
presented Schaefer and Gene Hackman, in his most outstanding TV performance,
with enormous demands. Co-starring were Ralph Bellamy, Jane Wyatt, Inga
Swenson and Bonnie Bedelia.
