Larry Gelbart is the comic genius who developed M*A*S*H, one of the longest running, most beloved TV series in history. He’s a much-admired member of that memorable gaggle of writers, which included Woody Allen, Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner and Neil Simon, who wrote for Sid Caesar. He is one of our nations sharpest and most respected satirists from his critically acclaimed HBO movies, “Barbarians At The Gate,” “Weapons Of Mass Distraction” & “Starring Pancho Villa As Himself” -- to his “unintended trilogy” of scathing political plays; “Mastergate,” “Floodgate” & “Abrogate.” Larry has won eight WGA awards and two Emmys. He received Oscar noms for "Oh God!" and "Tootsie." He also received Tony awards for "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" and "City of Angels." The WGA awarded him its Paddy Chayefsky Laurel Award for Television for lifetime achievement in 1981. He was also awarded the Humanitas Prize and Peabody Awards for his work on "MASH" along with the Pacific Broadcasting Pioneer Award for Creativity and Achievement in Radio and Television. In April, 2008 Larry was named as an inductee in the Television Hall Of Fame -- the same month his new play, “Better Late” opened to rarve reviews in Chicago.
