| On his 1979 3-hour special from China, Bob Hope interviewed Chinese leading basketball player at the time, 7'5" Mu Chi Chu. Shades of Jeremy Lin?You can read all about the how Hope worked with his guests and his writers and what happened behind-the-scenes of these classic Bob Hope video clips by reading my book "THE LAUGH MAKERS: A Behind-the-Scenes Tribute to Bob Hope's Incredible Gag Writers," chosen a "Top 20" 2009 Year End Pick by Leonard Maltin who says... "Having spent twenty years writing for the indefatigable Bob Hope, and traveling all over the world, Bob Mills is well qualified to salute the famous corps of gagmen who kept the comedian knee-deep in jokes. These first-hand recollections summon up the final phase of Hope's career—and the end of the trail for an entire brand of show business." ************************** Order THE LAUGH MAKERS personally inscribed by theAuthor.
