Stanley Howard Mazin has been in show business since 1963. He has performed as well as acted in several Broadway shows, as well as 10 1⁄2 years on The Carol Burnett Show, plus many films including The Blue Brothers, Newsies, Mame, The Wedding Planner, The Back Up Plan, Dracula, Dead and Loving It, The History of the World, Part 1, and Titanic. The many sitcoms and TV shows include The George Carlin Show, Flying Blind, Mama's Family, Many Academy Award Shows, The Tonys, The Emmys, The Teen Choice Awards, TV Specials such as Petula Clark's Downtown, 2 Lena Home Specials, Mitzi Gaynor Specials, Michael Jackson's MTV Special, and 2 Janet Jackson music videos, et. al. The book contains many side stories dealing with himself as well as the many of the celebrities he has worked with. Some are funny, some are embarrassing, and some very touching. Any reader who loves show business will be delighted with his anecdotes. All this plus he is totally candid in relation to his unique family and problems therein.
Not a biography and not told in chronological order, author Stanley Howard Mazin takes you on a journey of a reminisces of his life. Not a show business massive per- say, this is the story of a man of extraordinary positive energy lucky enough to make a living doing what he loves in the theatrical field. In the book, Stan earnestly shares, through thoughts and personal antidotes philosophy and life lessons learned from each encounter he experiences. Reflecting on family, friends, travel, and so much more, including stores from some of his show business friends and contacts along the way, Stan reveals himself as the dedicated, hardworking, loving, loyal, talented, and creative man he has always been. I might dare suggest the term 'mensch' suits the author to a tee, as readers may experience for themselves in this most sincere, heartfelt book.
