I just noticed that the Internet Movie Database believes that Paul Pompian (a TV and movie producer who passed away last January) is the same person as Paul Pumpian (A TV writer who worked on a lot of variety shows for Dean Martin, Lucille Ball and many others). They are not the same person and never were. I haven't spoken to my friend Paul Pumpian lately but I believe he is still alive and funny.
I've given up trying to correct anything on the IMDB because it seems to take forever to enter the data and even longer for them to make the changes. Perhaps someone with more patience or skill than I possess can let them know.
I have a post coming in a day or three that mentions folks who ghostwrite or ghostdraw newspaper comic strips. Paul Pumpian also wrote Blondie for a very long time.
