Face-to-face with Andy Griffith When I was 16, the summer before my senior year in high school, I went to stay with my grandparents in Manteo on the Outer Banks. They owned The Cloth Barn, and that is where I had my first real job. One day while I was helping tidy up the rolls of cloth, a man wearing sunglasses came into the shop. It only took me a few seconds to recognize him. It was the actor Andy Griffith. I was so stunned but somehow managed to ask if I could help him. He wanted to know if we had any burlap material. All I managed to do was ask him to wait while I got my grandfather. After Andy Griffith left, my grandfather said he would have introduced me to him, but he was afraid I’d faint.
