Cast of 'A Good Deal'

Romance about genetic disease is Ron Nash’s latest

The arts did not beckon when Ron Nash was a young man—far from it. “I was in trouble mentally in high school. I was angry, angry, angry,” he said. He even got kicked out of school, but his athletic ability—he was a hurdlers champion in track—earned him a scholarship to college.
