	Ronald Reagan... In Hollywood
		I thought the union would be run by the lesser actors who'd been exploited by the studios, but instead a lot of Hollywood's top stars, like Cary Grant and Jimmy Cagney, were on the board.
		The Screen Actors Guild was one of the latter, as was the International Association of Theatrical and Stage Employees - better known as the stagehands' union or by its initials, IATSE.
		In 1960, after leading the Screen Actors Guild in its first major strike in history in my fifth term as president, I resigned after becoming a partner in a production company, and therefore, from the union's point of view, I was no longer a working stiff but a producer.
