The many references to [[astronomy]] and extraterrestrials in the script result from Les Golden’s second career as an astronomy professor at the [[University of Illinois at Chicago]].
He is also the author of “Never Split Tens,” a screenplay based on the life of the M.I.T. mathematics professor who developed the card counting system at casino blackjack, “[[Murder by Mistletoe]],” a full length murder mystery/comedy, and “The Skull Caper,” a noire script based on [[Del Close]]’s bequeathing his skull to the Goodman Theatre for use as Yorick in [[Hamlet]].
