Someone who is important in your life? Well, I can tell you one way t6 do it, and a very simple way it is. It is born of my own experience. A few seasons ago, I was delivering a series of radio broad casts juiider the title of ‘.‘Little Known Facts About Well Known People.” Among others, I wanted to do a broadcast about Ed Wynn, the well-known comedian, who was then going great guns in the entertainment world. Naturally, every body who knew, or had even met, Ed Wynn, were trying to get at him, most of them want ing favors. I tried three times to get him on the telephone with a view to making an pointment for an interview. But he was ei^ busy, ‘‘in conference,” not in. Anyway, he D. Carnegie never came to the telephone, and his^cretary was well versed In the art of ‘‘shunting off.” Finally, I decided to go ahead writing my T>r6adcast with out a personal interview, although -a^persojral interview, of course, makes for a far better and more instured broadcast. So I went to the library and started in Uyao ‘‘research” on Ed Wynn. There was. quite a bit of material, much of it just what 1 wanted. I thought of sending hiny^my typed notes and asking him if all the statements were true. All of a sudden I got an other idea, one that my intplfigence told me could not help but work. . So I called up the/feroadcasting company, got hold of a friend who handled su^h information,‘and asked him where Ed Wynn was rehearsing his own program. My friend looked up the information/for me, told me where Ed Wyn could be found at a certain Ume. I weiit^u) the studio, but was stopped at the door, natural ly. I sajdthat I had a message for Ed Wynn and would like to spje'ak to him in person. ie message got to him and, finally, he came toward me tuspiciously. I used an opening sentence that stopped him in his tracks. I said: “Mr. Wynn, I probably know more about you than anybody outside your own family. I am an authority on you. Would you like to know what I know about you?” I then handed him the typewritten pages of what I had gleaned about him—13 in all. I said, “There it is. Do you want to read it?” Did he? Well! Thirteen typewritten pages on what people thought of him, what had been said and written about him. As he read, he broke in with, “Well, I didn’t know that had ever been published about me. How in the world did you get this information?” And so pn. You can believe that every word interested him. The result was that I got an hour’s interview with him. Until that time I hadn’t been able to get at him at all. And why was I able to do so now? For just one reason: because I had talked to him about the most interesting subject in the world to him—himself. * And that’s a. sure-fire way to approach any one. Know something about him, let him know you know, whether it is oral or written. There’s hardly a man so big who isn’t in-....* stantlv an-’ • ' undlv interested. origin, or . + IR$T VAlEMTINia.
