I'm a writer-director-actor, which I've always kind of enjoyed. I compared it to the Olympic biathlon. "Not only can he cross-country ski, but he's a terrific marksman as well. " I want people to say, "You mean that writer performed a tracheotomy?" That's right, I do everything.
Esquire, in a July, 1957 issue, has a photograph of me playing the French horn at the Five Spot.
