Albert
After graduating from high school at 16, Stockwell left Hollywood. 'I cut my hair off, changed my name and disappeared into the countryside. I took odd jobs for five year; then when I ran out of things to do, I went back into the business to try again.'
Successful again, he starred in the film classics 'Compulsion,' 'Sons and Lovers' and 'Long Day's Journey Into Night' before quitting show business a second time. 'In the '60s, when we had hippies and Haight-Ashbury, I dropped out of my career and just went with that,' he says. 'I found it fulfilling because didn't have much of a childhood.'
The next time back in Hollywood, there were occasional roles, but it wasn't until Stockwell married his wife Joy, started a family and moved to new Mexico, that he found himself in demand. 'I think I have my best work ahead of me,' he says, 'and now I can enjoy it.'
