Description

LORNE: The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live is the definitive, years-in-the-making biography of Lorne Michaels by The New Yorker editor Susan Morrison. Through unprecedented access to Michaels and hundreds of interviews with him, his cast members, friends, and family, Morrison reveals the man behind the show-his obsessions, his genius, and the legacy that has impacted generations of comedians and writers, from John Belushi to Tina Fey to Chris Rock. LORNE is the full, wildly entertaining story of a furrier's son from the suburbs of Toronto who would go on to transform comedy.
Susan  joined Mike Pomp on the Morning Information Center to chat about the new book.
