Jean Stapleton, Ed Asner, Keith Carradine, Mare Winningham, Jean Simmons, Jack Warden, Barnard Hughes, Richard Thomas, Sharon Gless, Sylvia Sidney, Harold Gould, and Lillian Gish owe some of their later successes to Burt.
Not exactly a memoir, his fifty-year and often hilarious career assorted notables, nut cases, and celebrated friends, such as Groucho Marx, Oscar Levant, Billy Wilder, Tiny Tim, Ginger Rogers, Spiro Agnew, Jimmy Stewart, Norman Lear, George Kennedy, Susan Strasberg, Andy Warhol, Jack Palance, Bob Hope, Jill St. John, George C. Scott, Dick Van Dyke, George Burns, Farrah Fawcett, Gene Kelly, Jack Webb, Stan Laurel, Dalton Trumbo, Burt Reynolds, Lizabeth Scott, Dana Andrews, William Peter Blatty, Diane Sawyer, George Carlin, Orson Bean, William Saroyan, Carol Burnett and . . . Sonny Tufts!
If you enjoyed his best seller, Conservatives Are from Mars, Liberals Are from San Francisco, you’ll be entertained by his half-century of encounters, collaborations, and friendships—with all the boring parts left out.
The Story of My Life eBook Burt Prelutsky
This is not really an autobiography. It's akin to the old David Letterman routine where he interviewed people in the audience who had somehow come to be in the presence of celebrities, called "Brush with Greatness". Burt has spent many years in the LA area writing movie reviews, humor columns, and yes, celebrity interviews. So these are his remembrances of some of the people he interviewed, or variously came in contact with over those years. It is a very good book...very funny and an easy read. I've always loved his writing, especially the conservative columns that he writes today. But these stories are classic, and give one great insight into some of the people we only knew from the big screen, or small TV screen. Burt has also written several scripts for movies and TV, which brought him into contact with lots of industry insiders, both on and off screen. The man can tell a story! I was thoroughly pleased and would recommend this book to anybody interested in Hollywood, TV, et al. Do yourself a favor...buy this book and laugh out loud!Product details

Mr. Prelutsky has been around the Hollywood seen quite some time, met some great people, wrote for some great shows. This book is a minimal example of his writing prowess.
Loved this book! The people the author has interviewed reads like a who's who of Hollywood and the entertainment industry. The reader will enjoy this wonderful trip down memory lane. Buy it today!
I could not put this book down. I read it in 2 days. Burt is one of the funniest guys around and can spot a phony a mile away. I loved the stories about his poker games.
This book is a delightful collection of anecdotes of the author's interactions with various celebrities during his career as a comedy writer, a movie reviewer, and an author. He has had a long and illustrious career in the entertainment world, and he shares his insights and opinions of a number of movies and tv shows and so many of the personalities with whom he has interacted over the years. It was a fascinating and entertaining walk down memory lane for me, as I grew up watching many of the tv shows and movies he talks about in this book. I read the entire book in one sitting, as it was so engaging I couldn't put it down.
