Stahl was responsible for getting Actor/Stuntman/Director
Bruce Carson into acting. When Carson was young Stahl moved into a house down the street. Stahl said hello one day when he was walking his young son around the block. Carson recognized him from Television. Stahl and his wife Kathryn invited Carson to have tea with them regularly. They became friends and Stahl eventually took Carson to Hollywood and got him a powerful agent. Never acting before in his life Stahl taught Carson the Hollywood ropes and helped learn the trade. They remained friends until Stahl's death.
