But this isn't his first rodeo. Robert has over 100 movie credits to his name, including appearing in Spielberg's Lincoln and Evan Almighty. And he did not have to sell out to Hollywood to do so. In Delay is Not Denial, Robert weaves a picturesque story of his idyllic childhood growing up on a farm in Missouri, and of making his eventual way to Hollywood. He has the claim to fame of being the chosen suitor on The Dating Game, but tells of a beautiful teacher-to-be who stole his heart. And God had other plans for this farm-boy-turned-actor. With the near death of his wife, Marcia, from a brain aneurism ten days after she gave birth, the Shepherd knew it was time to return to family and home. But the dream never died, and Robert incorporated his love of acting into his work with the U.S. Army, which eventually enabled him to fulfill his lifelong calling of acting full time. Told in a relaxing way, so necessary in these trying times, readers will smile and hear voice of their beloved "I love you, Dad," hearing aid father in their ears as they read. For indeed, Robert is everyone's father these days...he pours out his heart to all who read. Also included are priceless devotionals from Marcia Shepherd, and invaluable acting tips from Robert.
