Description of Pictures: Joel Grey In Conversation with Leon Wieseltier
The Tony, Golden Globe, and Oscar-winning actor, producer, and director is a tireless showman, acting in countless movies and TV shows after decades spent on and off Broadway. Grey is perhaps best known for his iconic role as master of ceremonies in the stage and screen versions of Cabaret. Growing up Joel David Katz in a Jewish family in Cleveland, he began acting at age 9.
In Master of Ceremonies, Grey takes readers on a tour of a life lived in and out of the limelight, through the changing landscape of seven decades spent in entertainment: from vaudeville to theatre to movies and television, Grey has been at the forefront of each innovation and has adapted to master the forms.
In 2015, Grey opened up to the public for the first time, saying in People: “I don’t like labels, but if you have to put a label on it, I’m a gay man.” Grey lived partly in secrecy, the victim of an era that made being himself not only difficult, but also dangerous.
With Master of Ceremonies, Grey is finally able to step out of character and share, with honesty and fearlessness, the man behind so many memorable roles. In conversation with Leon Wieseltier, a contributing editor at The Atlantic and the author of Kaddish. From 1983 to 2014, he was the literary editor of The New Republic. Book signing to follow.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
