/24-7PressRelease/ - ANCHORAGE, AK, July 11, 2008 - George Carlin may have passed on, too soon for his fans, but his words live on in a new book entitled "The Secret of Their Success: Interviews with Legends & Luminaries (available at Barnes, Amazon and at all finer bookstores),
The book features a rare interview of Carlin, not previously published, where he talks at length about his career, his near bankruptcy and his climb back to the top, all in rare candor rarely seen by the public.
"Frankly, I was surprised that we spoke for two entire hours and he didn't say a single bad word. I had been fooled into taking his Lenny Bruce-like public persona for the man. He was actually very soft-spoken and well-mannered, and even sentimental when speaking about his late wife," said author and interviewer Burt Prelutsky.
TV writer and former LA Times columnist, Burt Prelutsky compiled the list of interviews. And Carlin's entire interview can be found in Prelutsky's new book, "The Secret of Their Success: Interviews with Legends & Luminaries," a 400+ page paperback book with over 70 interviews with major movers and shakers past and present including Carlin and other funny men and women like Steve Allen, Ed Asner, Sid Caesar, Larry Gelbart (of MASH fame), Norman Lear, Jack Lemmon, Julie Newmar, Dick Van Patten and many more.
It's available at Amazon (with a 5 star rating!)
