THE LAUGH CRAFTERS: Comedy Writing in Radio & TV's Golden Age by Jordan R. Young comes from interviews the author conducted with the wits behind some of the great comedians. The writers (Larry Gelbart, Paul Henning, George Balzer, Parke Levy, etc.) talk about good times and bad...they are not shy about chronicling some of the abuses they endured at the hands of comedy's great egos. It's a delightful, anecdotal read. Available from Amazon.com.
