This book is an inside view of The Ed Sullivan Show and the unusual story of one of the most unlikely television stars in the history of the medium. Sullivan's shows were unique in their variety, spontaneity, and the fact that Sullivan insisted they be live. Acts or guests were chosen by Sullivan himself, often capitalizing on events that had just happened the day before. But Sullivan also insisted on sprinkling his shows with little drops of culture, such as bits of opera and ballet. In this book Bernie Ilson, the Sullivan show's P.R. man for eight years, takes us on a trip down memory lane to revisit one of the most popular shows in television history.
