That's me with my pal (and birthday-sharer) Laraine Newman. Even before I met her, I thought she was the most skilled performer on the original Saturday Night Live and I knew she was an important, driving force in the improv comedy scene in Los Angeles. She has been a busy actress and writer for many years on stage, on screen and even in front of a microphone doing voices for cartoons, including many of mine. One of my favorite people on this or any other planet.
Her life and career have been fascinating and this coming Sunday, March 13, she'll be discussing that life and that career in a live interview you can watch on Zoom. It starts at 11 AM Pacific Time (which is 2 PM Eastern Time) and it's free, though the organization hosting it gives you the option of getting a free ticket or paying for one to help them out. You can do either of those things over on this page. Either one will get you a link to watch screenwriter-producer Arlene Sarner chat with the lovely and talented Laraine.
