Lunch with Norman Lear

On Tuesday the Ambassador invited me to have lunch with Norman Lear and his family. For those of you who may not know him, Mr. Lear is an accomplished producer that produced All in the Family, The Jeffersons, Maude, Fried Green Tomatoes, and the Princess Bride, amongst others. He and his family were very friendly, and interesting to talk to.

Mr. Lear is also a social activist and philanthropist, and started the Norman Lear Center at the USC Annenberg School for Communication, a multidisciplinary research and public policy center dedicated to exploring the convergence of entertainment, commerce and society. Read more about him here.

You may also recognize Dr. Lapook in the photo, CBS medical correspondent.
