Description
Budd Schulberg discusses his book, “What Makes Sammy Run?” He describes the character, Sammy Glick, and his life starting as a copy boy and then becoming a Hollywood screenwriter. Schulberg then talks about feminists’ views of the character, Catherine Sargent. He says his father, B.P. Schulberg was almost too intellectual for Hollywood and that Donald Trump and Sammy Glick share the same ambition to succeed. Schulberg also talks about F. Scott Fitzgerald and Warner Brothers, and discusses his book, “Love, Action, Laughter, and Other Sad Tales.”
