Lee Strasberg

In the 1980s, they did a show that was on every year called "A Night of 100 Stars".
It was a spectacular show, where they paraded, literally "at least 100 major stars.
It took place at the Radio City Music Hall.
It was a big deal every year.
One time, in the mid 80s, they had a male Chorus Line, big stars, who all rolled up their pants and sang and danced to the song "One", from "A Chorus Line".
One of these stars was Lee Strasberg.
He looked like he was about 85 at the time.  And he and the others were doing high kicks.
I remember thinking  "This is not a good idea. Serious damage could be done."
Two days later, Strasberg died of a heart attack.
I thought immediately that the two events were related.
To my knowledge, nobody else has ever put these two events together.
I maintain to this day that there was cause-and-effect.
I know what I saw.

My books, "Show Runner" and "Show Runner 2" can be found at the Amazon Kindle Store,

along with newer ones, "The Man Is Dead", and "Report Cards".

They are all compilations of blog entries have since been removed from the blog.

So this is the only way you can find them.,

You can search by typing in my name, Cindy Williams, Laverne and Shirley, The Odd Couple, or Happy Days.

Check them out.

You don't need a Kindle machine to download them.

Just get the free app from Kindle, and they can be downloaded to an IPhone, IPad, or Blackberry.

The paperbacks, "Mark Rothman's Essays" and my new novel, "I'm Not Garbo" are not e-books.

But they are available for people without Kindle.

I have many readings and signings lined up for those, and the thing about Kindle is you can't sign one.

If you'd like one of the paperbacks, personally autographed, contact me at macchus999@aol.com.

And now, there's my reading of my screenplay of my unmade "Laverne and Shirley" movie on "YouTube".
