RAISED EYEBROWS: My Years Inside Groucho’s House – Steve Stoliar

RAISED EYEBROWS: My Years Inside Groucho’s House is the bittersweet story of the last years in the life of Groucho Marx, told by a young Marx Brothers fan who was fortunate enough to work for Groucho as his personal secretary and archivist, right inside Marx’s Beverly Hills home. In addition to getting to know his hero, the author was able to spend “quality time” with Zeppo, Gummo, Mae West, George Burns, Bob Hope, Jack Lemmon, S.J. Perelman, Steve Allen, and scores of other luminaries of stage, screen, TV and literature. Born in University City, Missouri, writer-producer-voice actor Steve Stoliar is the author of RAISED EYEBROWS. By joining our program you will hear the ins and outs of this dream-come-true of getting close to his idol as the curtain was coming down, and dealing with Erin Fleming – the mercurial woman in charge of Groucho’s personal and professional life. Filled with never-before-seen photos and anecdotes, with an introduction by Dick Cavett. RAISED EYEBROWS is currently in development as a motion picture, with a script by Stoliar and Israeli-American writer-director Oren Moverman. This program is sponsored by the Saul Brodsky Library, the Lazaroff Family Lecture Series and the Mirowitz Center. To view the Zoom recording click here.
