SEGMENT: MARLON BRANDO AND ESTHER ANDERSON

Prince Eduard Von Anhalt from Germany our business associate at the time leased a mansion in the hills above the Playboy Club in Hollywood. There were many bedrooms and most were used by his new friends and even some celebrities.

MARLON BRAND AND ESTHER ANDERSON

Marlon Brando had a celebrity friend staying at the mansion. Her name was Esther Anderson and was originally from the Jamaica. Esther was awarded the NAACP Image Award for outstanding actress in a motion picture. She was a beautiful and entertaining woman and always entertained all the residences and visitors.

When I met Esther she was the Host of the Auto Show in Hollywood dressed in a checkerboard outfit and greeted all the visitors standing on a large colored racing box. She was so cute also.

One day I was visiting the mansion on the hill and I was visiting with Esther. We were sitting on a sofa that over looked Hollywood and she was showing me her new photo album. I was set back with one of the photos on a page and it was a shot from her waste up to her head. She had on a daring blouse and she had her right hand slipped into the slight opening of the blouse of her left breast. It was really sexy and inviting. I asked her why she chose that photo and she said, see, you asked and got your attention.

Just prior to the answering me, I heard the front door open and heard someone walk up to the back of the sofa we were sitting on. After replying saying, see, you asked and got your attention she said even her best friend standing behind you loves it. I turned my head to see who was there and she said, "Gene, meet Marlon Brando". We are going to dinner now.

I was set back when Marlon shook my hand and said he was pleased to meet me.

Marlon and Esther walked out the door and Marlon's motorcycle was parked in front of the front door. He got on and told her to get on behind him. She said "no way, I'm not riding on that thing". He insisted and she got on. When Marlon took off in a hurry, Esther's legs lifted up in the air for an instant at the motorcycle sped off. That was funny!

I was at the mansion two more times and Marlon invited me to the Playboy Club for a bite to eat. I told him I would drive and needed my car after we ate. That was my way not getting on the motorcycle and my legs flying in the air. We met at the Plyboy Club and had something to eat and a drink. We chatted for a while and shook hands and left. Before he walked out he said to me, please look over Esther, she's new to the U.S. I answered of course I would.
