Lawrence recounts a 40-year career writing radio serials (Green Hornet, Sgt. Preston), juvenile book series (Hardy Boys, Tom Swift, Nancy Drew), and over 20 years scripting the James Bond newspaper strip beginning in 1965. He discusses his collaborative relationships with artists Yaroslav Horak and Jorge Longaron, the challenge of condensing Fleming's novels into strip form, and the decline of adventure strips as television supplanted them as the primary vehicle for mass fantasy. He also describes creating the strip Friday Foster and writing Barbara Cartland and Dallas strips.
