In memory of Jane Milmore.

A wonderful conversation with Playwright, Writer and Actor Billy Van Zandt. Billy shared stories from his times working with Don Rickles, Frank Sinatra, Bob Newhart, Penny Marshall, Sean Penn, Tom Cruise and others. We talk comedy, acting, life, the process of writing, his brother Steven, and my favorite -- the story of the time he, Sean Penn and Tom Cruise sat outside Lucille Ball's house waiting to meet her.

His plays can be seen around the world, and his book 'Get in the Car, Jane!' is available on Amazon, wherein he recounts first hand stories with Old Hollywood and modern Hollywood Actors, as well as insight into what goes into working in Showbiz.
