In a different conversation, Alexandra Reeve spoke about how deeply her father cared about his craft, not just as an actor but also as a director.

She recalled, "He was dedicated to his craft, of course, before the accident, but also after — being able to return to acting and directing and showing that a disability wouldn't hold him back."
