The Fugitive Way
Just east of Golden Gate Bridge |
In a recent episode of the latest incarnation
of the 1960s series The Fugitive,
Dr. Kimble found himself in the City by
the Bay. While filming on location, actor Tim Daly was
seen walking near the famous orange bridge.
I was unaware that they had ever been here
until I saw the episode. But since this location happens to be
along my weekly bicycling route, I thought
I'd snap a picture. In the photo, it looks as if the place where
I stood is separated from San Francisco,
but it only appears that way because it's nearly the northernmost
point in the city, in the Presidio.
ShowBiz Trivia
Some of you will remember that Tim's sister,
Tyne
Daly (Cagney & Lacey), did some S.F. location filming herself
when she worked with Clint Eastwood in the first Dirty Harry movie.
Among other places, she visited Alcatraz
Island.
