'Bruce Lee showed me life and truth,' states Dan Inosanto, the genius' premier disciple and the man Bruce Lee personally groomed to help point the way for those seriously interested in pursuing his recently conceived method of self-discovery, Jeet Kune Do.

Aside from his immediate family, Dan Inosanto was as close to Bruce Lee as anyone. They experienced an immediate rapport based on mutual respect for each other's extraordinary martial capabilities, soon becoming fast friends. So much so, that in 1966 Dan named his first child, a girl, Diana Lee, after his now famous companion. The pair traveled together, trained together, gave demonstrations together, taught together, experimented together, socialized together, and yes, even made movies together-at the same time culitvating one of the most heartwarming relationships on the torrid annals of martial arts.-Inside Kung-Fu Magazine
