Listen on www.iconsradio.com Hosted by John Mulholland, Meir Ribalow & Stephen Bogart George Raft was born and grew up in a poor family in Hell's Kitchen, at the time, one of the roughest, meanest areas of New York City. In his youth he showed a great interest in, and aptitude for, dancing. That, combined with his dark good looks and sharp dressing, made him a local favorite. In 1928, Raft went to Hollywood to try his luck at acting. His first big role was as the coin-tossing henchman in Scarface (1932). His career was marked by numerous tough-guy roles, often a gangster or convict. He somewhat parodied his gangster reputation in Billy Wilder's Some Like It Hot (1959). Join John, Meir and Steve for a discussion with Stone Wallace, author of The Man who would be Bogart as they discuss the colorful career of actor George Raft.
