Congrats on finishing the book. Looking forward to reading. ( I can already tell I’m gonna love it.). . .—Paul ReiserToo Funny For Words is the dishy show business book of your dreams. In his long, crazy career, Jerry Adler has worked with everyone from Jack Benny to Meryl Streep. To read about them all—from Jerry’s witty, insightful POV—is a thrill! —Michelle King, writer and producer of The Good Wife, The Good Fight, Evil, and Your HonorJerry Adler has seen it all, done it all, and has known just about everyone along the way. And, in his warm and wonderful book he shares the highlights of a ‘life in our biz’ with humor and joy. It’s a happy journey through decades of show business and a superb recollection of some of its most colorful characters. Great stories from a great storyteller. These are the kind of tales you only get to hear if you are at Sardi’s or Joe Allen’s after the show, sitting with the cast, swapping anecdotes. These are the tales we cherish. Bravo, Jerry for a wonderful chronicle of our crazy business. —Jason AlexanderWhen I worked with Jerry, whenever we had a free moment on set, I’d pester him for stories about his years working in the theater. Well, lucky us: here are all those incredible stories (including many I never knew) gathered up in one fascinating, funny package. Broadway, film, television: Jerry Adler’s had a career like no one else. The man is a treasure —and so is his book. —Peter Tolan, writer and producer of Rescue Me, The Larry Sanders Show, Mad About You, and Analyze ThisA wonderfully engaging collection of personal anecdotes brimming with nostalgia and humor. Too Funny For Words will make you long for times gone by with its fond recollections of the most beloved figures in show business. —Alex Ephraim, PhD Candidate, History of Art & Architecture
