what did Jerry Orbach do before Law and Order?

he was a song and dance man on Broadway.
there was a special tonight on public television ... Broadway's Lost Treasures, hosted by Harvey Fierstein and Joel Grey. Lots of fun things, including Zero Mostel in Fiddler on the Roof, Jerry Orbach in 42nd Street, Yul Brynner in The King and I. What a nice retrospective. of course Linda would have known who did the book, music and lyrics for each show, who starred in it, and more. it really is important knowing the context of songs. what an encyclopedia of musical knowledge she had. i miss that a lot. being amazed at how she could remember it all.

Everything is coming together for the trip. All that's missing is my corset. Well, undergarment. Well, corset. But it's really comfortable.

And I have a security system.
A momentous day.
