For the book I am currently researching on the flight of John Glenn aboard Friendship 7, I am very keen to contact Eddie Hodges, who appeared with John Glenn on "Name That Tune." I am wondering if anyone from collectSPACE can contact me privately at my email address above if you are able to assist.

Just a quick word of thanks to those three collectSPACE members who contacted me off-forum with information which will now enable me to contact Eddie Hodges. Much appreciated, guys!

I remember seeing that show with "Little" Eddie Hodges.

Just curious. I remember that scene in "The Right Stuff." However, since it has been such a long time since I've seen it, did they use Eddie Hodges real name in the movie, or was it changed?

They used Eddie Hodges' real name in the movie. As an aside, his real first name is Samuel, but he's always gone by Eddie.
