Bob Crane
Auto-Focus, a 2002 film about Bob Crane’s life and death, was directed by Paul Schrader and starred Greg Kinnear as Crane… Both Mel Gibson and Russell Crowe once expressed interest in playing Col. Hogan in a separate feature film version of Hogan’s Heroes, but the film has never gotten off the ground… Before beginning his acting career, Bob Crane was a popular morning radio disc jockey on Los Angeles station KNX… Bob Crane’s second wife (1970-78) was actress Sigrid Valdis, who played the blonde secretary Hilda on Hogan’s Heroes… Their son Robert “Scotty” Crane became a radio host and co-creator of the radio comedy show Shaken, Not Stirred… Hogan’s Heroes is sometimes compared with the more serious 1953 POW film Stalag 17, which starred William Holden.
