Has anyone here seen or heard of a documentary series called American Made? Apparently it was 1984 series, described as a behind the scenes look at the creative process of some of america's artists, featuring several actors and musicians, including Dan. I don't recall ever hearing about this. But I sure would like to see it.

In this segment on Joni Mitchell's art, there is a very short teaser for Dan's episode:

And at the bottom of this page on the filmaker's site is a photo of Dan and a little blurb about his episode:

I've searched around hoping to find the piece on Dan, but no luck. It was supposed to have aired on the A&E channel back in 1984, but I didn't find anything in their archives on it. Can't find anything more about it anywhere. Curious if anyone here has seen it, or remembers hearing about it, or better yet, can share a link to view it?

I have seen that picture of Dan before, but I don't know where. I checked youtube and the video is not among the video interviews posted there. All I can think of is to click on the "Contact Us" at the bottom of the page and ask the videographer if he can post it.

Thanks for the reply, Mary. I did think about contacting the filmaker but I’m having trouble drafting a thoughtful request. Figured I’d only get one shot at it, and don’t want to blow my chance. Have about four drafts, and they all sound stupid. So I just thought I’d check with folks first to see if anyone had anything to share. Was hoping someone might have already tracked it down.
