Coming soon to TV CONFIDENTIAL: SUSAN SILVER, one of the original writers of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, on the integral role that Garry Marshall played in helping her break the glass ceiling of network TV comedy; why some comedians and comedy writers enjoy watching true crime shows on TV; how producer George Eckstein helped her make the transition from writing sitcoms to writing such full-length Movies of the Week as The Couple Takes a Wife and The Girl Who Came Gift-Wrapped; and how we all must channel our Inner Chutzpah from time to time to overcome challenges in life. Susan’s memoir, HOT PANTS IN HOLLYWOOD, is now available as an audiobook through Audible.com, while the print edition is also available through Amazon.com. Susan’s radio commentaries, SUSAN SAYS with Susan Silver, are available for listening on demand at RobinHoodRadio.com and Apple Podcasts
