THE CAST OF THE BUS IS COMING (1971) - WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

I recently critiqued the 1971 film THE BUS IS COMING on the blog, and was intrigued by its cast. In particular two cast members who have largely disappeared from view. I sincerely hope that these actors are well, and happy in whatever they are presently doing.

Burl Bullock, as the volatile, electric Michael, was a performer who stood out in the film. An actor of distinctive appearance and personality, he was perfect in his role as the multi-faceted Michael. Unfortunately this appears to have been his only motion picture acting credit, but it would have been wonderful to have seen him in further movies.

In addition to Burl Bullock, Sandra Reed was also great as Miss Nickerson, the vindictive, traitorous nursery school teacher. An engaging actress whose only other film credit was JOHNNY TOUGH (1974), in THE BUS IS COMING she runs through a gamut of emotions as the treacherous Miss Nickerson.
