My Take
What earns my respect for Glaser is the refusal to coast. He could have ridden the Starsky & Hutch fame forever, yet he stepped behind the camera as a director and writer, choosing to build stories rather than just star in them. A Cambridge native and Boston University man, he came up through the golden age of network television, racking up roles in The Waltons, Kojak, and The Streets of San Francisco. Surviving five decades in this business takes more than a famous face. I read his career as quiet proof that curiosity outlasts celebrity.
