In a world, where all the attention and admiration belongs to the young and the beautiful, Alan Alda is a man who dares to be different. Nevertheless, you can catch him by getting West Wing download, here.

Well, the actor has managed to garner a fan-base of millions by his beyond-perfection depiction of his role as the US Secretary of State on the West Wing series and still lives in our hearts as a phenomenal actor, years after we saw his to-die-for performance on West Wing season 7.
While the acting prowess of this five-time Emmy Award winning actor stands undisputed, what truly make him worthy of all the admiration that he gets is, his warm heart and the fact that he’s so different from the rest of the lot.
Alda went on to prove this when he was all-praises for his 84-year old co-star, Elaine Stritch, on the sets of 30 Rock.
Talking Elaine, Alda said, “She’s remarkable. She was coming in and shooting for a full day, and then she was going out at night to do a Broadway musical.”
Well, I must say that this admiration for an elderly woman comes as a breeze of fresh air amidst all the attention centering on youngsters.
If you’re as much in awe of the actor as I am, you can watch him delivering one of his best performances on the West Wing episodes.
But that’s not where the goodness of Alda ends. There’s a lot more to him, that’s enough to wow anyone who hears of him.
Take for instance, the fact that he’s an active feminist and has been involved in numerous charitable events.
The best part is that when it comes to Alda, this is one man who’s not only a ‘jack of all trades’, but also a master of each one of them.
No wonder this man has the honor of being the first person to win Emmy Awards for acting, writing and directing for the same series, which he won for his M*A*S*H* series.
Well, after knowing all this about Alda, my admiration for him has increased manifold.
