He has discussed his father's remarkable story and, other aspects of Hollywood history, on such T.V. shows as, A&E's "Biography", E! Entertainment's "Mysteries & Scandals," and The Learning Channel's "The Secret History of Las Vegas."
As a composer, Willie studied under such film music luminaries as David Raksin, Paul Glass and Hugo Friedhoffer. Wilkerson's uncle, the legendary film star/dancer, Donald O'Connor, schooled him in every aspect of the entertainment business both in front and behind the cameras.
