On May 26, 2022, one of the greatest managers in the history of the comedy business passed away, George Shapiro. He had a legendary career that included managing three geniuses—Jerry Seinfeld, Carl Reiner, and Andy Kaufman. I am re-releasing this episode from 2015 so that you can learn more about the man and what made him so extraordinary. His words of wisdom helped me tremendously throughout my career to help me become a better manager, producer, and person.
Those of us who were fortunate enough to know him, and be touched by his unwavering positive spirit, will miss him greatly.
