"They never print
how nice he is."
Mary
Ure, New York Times interview 1968
"If you had
Robert as a true friend you couldn't ask for
anyone better. Robert had a reputation as a
womanizer, but a lot of it was myth. He was an
incredible man, even a shy little boy on
occasions. But he was a man who would go that
extra mile and even lay down his own life for a
friend. I would like the world to know that. "
Virginia Jansen (Robert Shaw's widow)
in an interview 1979
"I have always
been extremely proud to be his son. He was a
great man, a loving father, a generous,
wonderful spirit, very funny, often outrageous,
and a fabulous actor. His family was completely
devastated to lose him. Whatever you may hear
in the press, those that actually knew him,
loved him dearly."
Ian Shaw in an
e-mail addressed to me, June 2007
"A pleasure
to remember: actor, writer, man."
