Episode #224: Cam Clarke (The King Family) (Part One)

Today on an all new episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to returning guest Cam Clarke, a well-known voice actor and member of The King Family. While this is part one of two episodes, we begin our discussion around Cam’s new book Now They’re All Here: the King Family. Much more than a coffee table book, this project took years to put together with input from many King family members and comes in at a hefty 300+ pages on this history of America’s First Family of Song. In fact, it comes out today, February 25th so buy one from your local independent bookseller after this episode.

Like in our last conversation with Cam, we delve into the 30+ member King Family’s origins, their television series & specials in the 1960s, the familial bonds of working together with your family as well as Can’s place within the dynamic. We also discussed how and why the book came about, why it was Cam who put the book together and somehow that involves another book about a very famous costume designer who happens to appears often on QVC. If you listen, you’ll hear that story too.

We also discuss Cam’s career as an in demand voice-over actor, the weird connections he has to about 80 former guests of this podcast as well as the small, but not-so-insignificant details of being the child of a celebrity. What songs did his mother sing to him as a child at bedtime? Doesn’t it just give you all the feels?

We hope you enjoy this new podcast episode with Cam because we are again speaking with a child of a celebrity, interviewed by the child of a celebrity. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and everyone has a story. Take a listen.
