Friend Of The People
An even lesser-known fact about Ted, that Steenburgen brought to light, was that Danson was incredibly integrated with various groups in the area he grew up in, such as the Navajo and Hopi. He was also well acquainted with ranchers’ kids. Despite not being the most materially spoiled child, Ted was blessed with a majestic and open valley to adventure within. There was so much exhilarating beauty to appreciate all around him.
True Wealth
Steenburgen carried on with her history lesson by saying that this incredible and yet modest childhood that Dan experienced provided him with the ability to differentiate between true quality and the things that one could do without. Even without the glitz and glam of Hollywood, he believed that there were so many real and human qualities and connections to make with people and the world around him. Regardless of how much money Ted had growing up, he was incredibly loved by his parents on a daily basis.
