Bernie Rothman wrote popular, classic TV shows like "My Three Sons" and produced career-defining specials for stars like Judy Garland, George Burns, Diana Ross, Burt Reynolds, and Rudolf Nureyev.

Along the way, he reveals the secrets of writing a good sitcom, making Hollywood and Me both an insider's guide to success in Hollywood and a delightful record of a treasured time.
