George Schlatter

Legendary television producer George Schlatter talks with Joe Sibilia about attending a Friars Club roast of Jack Benny in his 20s, how he met Aaron Spelling (for whom he produced the Friars Club of California's Lifetime Achievement Award dinner in 2001), collaborating with Friar Ronald Reagan on his Las Vegas nightclub act, producing Friar Steve Lawrence's variety series on CBS, and much more. Plus, George shares his memories of producing his revolutionary comedy/variety series "Laugh-In," giving Robin Williams, Goldie Hawn, and Lily Tomlin early exposure on television, and working with and befriending Friars such as Lucille Ball, Frank Sinatra, Joey Bishop, Larry King, and Johnny Carson.

Check out George's new book, "Still Laughing: A Life in Comedy (From the Creator of Laugh-in)"
