Which Emmy winning U.S. TV star published a book of short stories called "Just One More Thing"?

In the book "Just One More Thing" (2006) Emmy Award winning actor, Peter Falk (1927 - 2011), takes us behind-the-scenes into his professional and private life. In a personal note to the reader, Falk stated that he liked to read short stories. He tried to create the kind of stories that he liked (short stories that could be read in ten minutes). He wrote a book that was designed for people to pick up and enjoy as they got into bed late at night.

Peter Falk died at the age of 83. As a raspy voiced actor, he won four Emmy Awards playing a deceptively rumpled homicide detective (Lt. Columbo). This is a character he played on television for over 35 years. When Falk died, he was at his home in Beverly Hills, CA. According to a family statement, he was ill with Alzheimer’s and his death was primarily caused by pneumonia.

Starting with a made-for-TV movie in 1968, "Columbo" became the role that cemented Peter Falk’s place in popular culture. It is a role that tended to overshadow his powerful acting in other dramatic series, film portrayals, and skillful comic works for directors such as Frank Capra and John Cassavetes. His fans truly loved him!
