Hi asuckerforagoodtvshow. I cannot speak for Alan. However, it would really surprise me if Alan Young would pick up the phone and start doing an interview with a complete stranger. Recently, when I spoke with him, we only conversed briefly. I inquired how he was feeling and closed the conversation by informing him how much we loved and admired him.
In addition, I would guess that Alan gets paid to do interviews and that they aren't free. Who knows? Make him an offer. He MIGHT bite. -

Hi cmjohnson87:
I ordered Alan Young's gifts this morning and they should arrive on Friday or Monday by Fed Ex. Your suggestion of shortbread cookies was great. Now, another question:
What would be an interesting and fun Christmas present for Alan?
Btw, this is what I had shipped to Alan this morning. Hope he likes everything.

Hi Alobster777,
Thanks a bunch! That's right, his birthday is coming up soon so it would be more appropriate to send a birthday card. Thanks for the advice and I'll definitely put my age. I'm such a huge Mister Ed fan so sending a letter to Mr. Young would be amazing for me. My mom watched it in the 60s and I'm so glad she shared this show with me as a kid. I also loved his work in the Time Machine and DuckTales; both I watched as a kid as well.
Thanks again!

She had not been his wife since the 90's. They remained somewhat friendly, but he briefly married a friend of his daughter's following the divorce. That did not end well. Sadly, many people try to take advantage of him.
