Barry Corbin Discusses his road tour "An Evening with Barry Corbin"

Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil "The Media Giant" Haley
interviews Barry Corbin. Barry Corbin has been acting for more
than six decades, a career that has seen him take more than two
hundred roles onstage, on TV, and in the movies. They’ve mostly
been supporting roles, often authority figures-a natural fit,
given Barry’s large frame and confident presence. He’s played
fifteen sheriffs, several generals, a few wise uncles, a
swaggering astronaut, and a hard-core basketball coach. He’s also
played psychotic patriarchs, wealthy Texans, Santa Claus, and
Lyndon Johnson. Even when his characters are overbearing or
murderous, Barry has always found a way to make them human and
likable-so much so that he often steals the show, as he did
portraying General Jack Beringer in WarGames and astronaut
Maurice Minnifield in Northern Exposure. Known as a character
actor, he always seems like he’s genuinely enduring whatever his
character is enduring-while also somehow remaining Barry Corbin.
