HTML: "Steve Allen is a comedic giant-quite simply one of the most talented people in the world," is the way Newsday put it. And the Washington Post summed it up for the rest of us: "There probably hasn't been a more durable, versatile, able, and admirable personality in the history of the medium. Allen probably has been responsible for as much laughter as anybody in television." Here in Funny People he conveys by anecdote and example the unique genius of four of the great comedians who have delighted our lives: Jack Benny, George Burns, Milton Berle, and Jimmy Durante. Laugh along with Steve Allen in this witty and perceptive exploration into comedy and comedians. Steve Allen, who has written bestselling books on lots of subjects, has now written one in the field for which millions of Americans consider him to be the longest reining authority. .No library descriptions found. |
