True Stories from an Old Dirt Road

Episode 3: Stars of the 60s on the Old Dirt Road

In 1964, Hollywood came to Sharon. That's when Brandon deWIlde and his wife Susan bought a small Vermont farmhouse that had been left in disrepair. Brandon made his name on Broadway when he was eight years old. From there he carved out a career in film and TV, even garnering award nominations. At the time he was a star, but he grew tired of acting and wanted to make a career in music.
