About

OMG! It's Harvey Korman's Son is a funny, heartwarming tale of what it was like to grow up in Hollywood with his famous cross-dressing comedian Dad, while trying to overcome his learning disability. Humor was his Dad's weapon of choice to help his son deal with celebrities, charities and straddling a double life between glamorous Hollywood and navigating through his struggles. CAROL BURNETT:Danny Kaye's show went off the air in 1967 and The Carol Burnett Show was premiering that fall. All I could think about was, We need a Harvey Korman. We need a consummate actor with comedy chops to spare.I believe we had a call in to his agent when one afternoon I happened to see Harvey himself headed for his car in the CBS parking lot.I shouted, "Harvey!"And then proceeded to jump him.I seem to remember leaning him back over a car hood."Please, please be on our show! You're the very best! PLEASE?"It wasn't exactly the most professional way to offer someone a job, but it worked. Harvey signed on, and I was in heaven. BURT LANCASTER (OSCAR-WINNING ACTOR):"Chris, your father is a brilliant actor. He creates these incredibly believable human characters. On live television, no less." PETER MARSHALL (Emmy-Award-winning host) Hollywood Squares"I always tell people that Chris loves me so much that, when he was six years old and I was in the hospital, he chose to visit me over breakfast at IHOP." MEL BROOKS (Oscar-winning writer/director)(Starred Harvey Korman in Blazing Saddles, High Anxiety, and Historyof the World Part 1): "Chris, I loved your father, even though he could be a real asshole."
