Remembering Cary Grant, Actor and Father

The Takeaway

For more than thirty years, Cary Grant was one of the most bankable actors in the world, starring in such classics as “Bringing Up Baby,” “The Philadelphia Story,” “An Affair to Remember,” and “North by Northwest.”  And to this day, he is the gold standard for the male movie star against whom actors like George Clooney are compared.  But in 1966, at the age of 62, he hung up his hat, and focused the rest of his life on being a loving father to his only child, Jennifer Grant.  Grant is the author of a new book, “Good Stuff: A Reminiscence of My Father, Cary Grant.”
