The reluctant actor who was nominated for two Oscars and who immortalised Lieutenant Columbo around the world shares his hilarious and often touching stories - in his own inimitable voice.Peter Falk came to prominence as an actor in 1956 in the highly successful off-Broadway revival of "The Iceman Cometh" with Jason Robards. Although he worked continuously for the next three years, bouncing from one off-Broadway theatre to the next, atheatrical agent advised him not to expect much work in motion pictures because of his glass eye. Later, a talent scout for Columbia Pictures described Falk as a second John Garfield, but Harry Cohn, the head of Columbia Pictures, unfortunatelydisagreed: 'For the same price, I can get an actor with two eyes'. But in 1958, Twentieth Century Fox came to New York to make a movie - "Murder Inc" - and Falk landed a juicy role for which he received rave reviews and, incredibly, was nominated for anAcademy Award.

He was then nominated again for his second film, "Pocketful of Miracles" starring Bette Davis.Falk went on to become a favourite among filmgoers, yet it was through television that he reached his widest audience as Lt. Columbo, winningfour Emmys for the role. Interestingly, "Columbo's" raincoat came out of Falk's bedroom closet. He bought it years before he became an actor.
