Coming soon to TV CONFIDENTIAL: Jason Stuart, prolific film and TV character actor (MY WIFE & KIDS, GIA, HANK, BIRTH OF A NATION) and one of the first openly gay stand-up comedians, on the tenacity and work ethic he inherited from his immigrant parents; his thought process when he creates a new stand-up routine; appearing on THE DATING GAME at the height of its fame (and why Jim Lange was the perfect host for that show); and the impact that watching THAT CERTAIN SUMMER had on Jason when it originally aired in 1972. SHUT UP, I’M TALKING: Coming Out in Hollywood and Making It to the Middle, a very funny and often poignant look at Jason’s life and career, is now available in softcover and as an eBook through CCB Publishing

It’s also filled with great stories about Marilyn’s life and showbiz career. HOW NOT TO COOK FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE is available through Amazon.com and MarilynMichaels.com
