  • Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Don Knotts’ Daughter, Karen Knotts, Actress and Author of “Tied Up In Knotts, My Dad and Me”
    About Harvey's guest:
    Karen Knotts is an American actress and stand-up comedian and daughter of comedy genius Don Knotts.
    During her childhood and her teenage years, she and her father often "butted heads" over her desire to enter show business: "I always wanted to be an actress, even when I was young, but he said, 'No, that's not a good life for a child." She went on to say that he supported her "100 percent in the end". She studied at Beverly Hills High School, followed by USC School of Cinematic Arts.
    Knotts works as a stand-up comic and SAG/AFTRA actor. Her one-woman show, "Tied Up in Knotts", is the story of growing up with her comedian father. It was directed by Andersen Gabrych. She performed it at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2008. She also performs standup comedy on the road. Her television and film credits include Return to Mayberry, An Occurrence at Black Canyon, One of Our Own, and the Vice Academy series.
    Knotts also writes for the stage; her one-woman play Roger and Betsy was nominated for the Merce Awards in 2009. She has written two plays, Dates from Hell the Musical, and a farce, But We Open Tonite.

    Barney Fife was one of the funniest characters on television! I watched it in the 1960s and reruns today. I still scream with laughter. Brilliant. Another great interview. Thank you, Mr. Brownstone.

    Cute Karen really "nipped it in the bud" with talking about her wonderful dad.

    Wonderful interview....I just find it interesting that "he had to work, he was not rich"...I find that amazing, but I understand and certainly am miffed that with all the movie, TV and such, he had to work till the end. I believe his daughter, just that I find it strange. Maybe there is more to that?

    So interesting. I've seen Karen perform stand up and she is delightful.
    The Griffith show was of an innocence that we all can, to some extent look back on when life's problems were not filled with stress that wasn't resolved quickly. It provide a comfortable environment.
