Note: consume more Steve Martin
Watching Steve Martin win the Mark Twain Prize, like, last month, or whenever I saw it, definitely makes him a must-see. Well, Incluuuude Him: Martin Joins Twain Pantheon:
"There's so much of Steve Martin to love -- actor, comedian, writer, banjo player -- that it was hard to hit all the high spots when he received the eighth annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center [Sunday, October 23rd].
This year's ceremony, which was taped for broadcast Nov. 9 on PBS, had a homecoming feeling to it. Martin, who has been a frequent presenter of the award, was this time honored by previous winners Carl Reiner, Lily Tomlin and Lorne Michaels. Which meant that half of the eight Twain winners were in the house (the other four: Bob Newhart, Jonathan Winters, Whoopi Goldberg and Richard Pryor).
In receiving the award, Martin called it 'the only significant American award for comedy -- except for money.'" Ah, money. It's so nice.Labels: Originally published
