My Tribute to Carl Reiner
Comic genius Carl Reiner passed away at age 98. My Carl Reiner memory has left a lasting impression of a true Mensch. At age 14 a friend and I traveled by bus from Dunellen, New Jersey to Times Square where we watched "Sid Caeser's Your Show of Shows." We went backstage afterwards where I conducted a mock interview with Howie Morris, Sid Caeser, Nanette Fabray, and Carl Reiner. Carl Reiner was a true gentleman asking us how we liked the show and how I was doing in high school. How did we get backstage? I told the Security Guard that I was a high school reporter and needed to conduct a cast interview. Thank you Carl Reiner and may you rest in peace.
