The Late, Great Phil Hartman: His Life and Tragic Death [AUDIO]

Phil Hartman is one of my favorite comedic actors of all time. I'm a huge fan of his work on Saturday Night Live and he was a giant part of my favorite sitcom ever, NewsRadio. It was a real pleasure to spend some time talking about his life and career with author Mike Thomas.

Thomas is the author of a recent biography on Hartman, entitled You Might Remember Me: The Life and Times of Phil Hartman:

Both joyous tribute and serious biography, You Might Remember Me is a celebration of Phil Hartman’s multi-faceted career and an exhaustively reported, warts-and-all examination of his often intriguing and sometimes complicated life—a powerful, humor-filled and disquieting portrait of a man who was loved by many, admired by millions and taken from them far too soon.

The book is coming out in paperback soon and is highly recommended for the Phil Hartman fan in your life.
