Lorne: The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live
So I was very pleasantly surprised to find that this is a substantial, deeply-researched, fully-fleshed-out, definitive biography of one of television’s most influential producers and comedy pacesetters, which I only later found out has been nearly a decade in the making.
Few TV producers are famous in their own right, and most who are currently known by name (like, say, Chuck Lorre or Shonda Rhimes) are known for a prolific body of work. You have to go back to the likes of Rod Serling or Gene Roddenberry to find TV producers who are essentially known for one career-defining thing. Lorne Michaels, you could say, is as current as Lorre and Rhimes in his output and influence, and as old-school as Serling and Roddenberry in his connection to one definitive project.
And that bridge between the old and the new, between Michaels’ reverence for what has come

“I showed the America I knew and observed to others who might not have noticed.” – Norman Rockwell
Norman Perceval Rockwell, The Saturday Evening Post’s most famous illustrator, is considered by many to be one of America’s greatest artists. He was a master storyteller via canvas and paint, and his works, capturing the triumphs and foibles of the common man, are as popular today as they were in decades past.
Rockwell’s talent flourished during a period referred to as “The Golden Age of Illustration,” when the nation enjoyed the brilliance of such illustrators as Winslow Homer, J.C. Leyendecker, Maxfield Parrish, N.C. Wyeth, and Ellen Pyle.
Born in New York City on February 3, 1894, Rockwell always wanted to be an illustrator. He transferred to the Chase Art School at the age of 14, and then went on to the National Academy of Design and the Art Students League. There, he was taught by famous artists such as Thomas Fogarty, George Bridgman, and Frank Vincent DuMond. Rockwell’s first major commission came in 1912, when he was just 18, with his first book illustration for Carl H. Claudy’s Tell Me Why: Stories about Mother Nature.
