Kenneth
Junkin
"Otis Campbell"
Hailing from a little Alabama town named
Gordo, Kenneth Junkin has become a well-established Mayberry
impersonator. Junkin began portraying a sober "Otis Campbell" about 12
years ago, and is now a familiar face at Mayberry Days, TAGS fan events,
minor league ballparks, and the Mayberry Squad Car Nationals in Fayette,
Alabama, (which Junkin has organized for the third year). Junkin has
also worked with George Lindsey at Lindsey's Film Festival, and he
recently brought his Otis portrayal to the world's largest truck show in
Louisville, Kentucky.
Junkin says his favorite TAGS episode
is "Man In A Hurry," which he says tells the whole story of Mayberry and
what small town values are all about. |
