by Arnold N. Breman (Author)
After nearly a half-century of directing American performing arts centers, impresario Arnold N. Breman has seen it all: eccentric songwriters, spotlight-craving comedians and insecure entertainers. In his memoir, Breman recalls encounters with some of the most beloved performers of our time, including: Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman, Sarah Vaughan, Sammy Davis, Jr., Cab Calloway, Isaac Stern, Itzhak Perlman, Beverly Sills, Marcel Marceau, Cary Grant, Lucille Ball, Gene Kelly, Gregory Hines, Linda Ronstadt, Red Skelton, Victor Borge and many others. This is the story of crowd-pleasers who left audiences dazzled and managers frantic, told with wit and candor of a presenter who kept laughing through it all.
