GOSSIP:	Lithgow is among other celebs who are bringing their boldface names to a world long dominated by unknowns: the children's book industry – they pair up with publishers to do interviews and attend book signings and in return they conquer a new marquee, the cover of a kid's book. (November 12, 2002) A distinguished actor of stage, television, and movies who is at home playing everything from menacing villains, big-hearted transsexuals, and loopy aliens, John Lithgow is also a composer and performer of children's songs, a Harvard graduate, a talented painter, and a devoted husband and father: in short, he is a true Renaissance man. Graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University (1967) Was named a Fulbright scholar Hosted the Welcoming Reception for UCLA's new Chancellor Carnesale Claims that his most difficult performance was in TWILIGHT ZONE because he had to portray fear of the monster, although he couldn't really see it. Was considered for the role of Hannibal Lector in SILENCE OF THE LAMBS. He almost never blinks during this film (RICOCHET-1991) Played the part of Harry Zel, a movie agent that Harris contacts after being fired. The part was cut, but there are still references to his character in L.A. STORY (1991): during the freeway shoot-out, and in the California Cuisine luncheon.
