Larry Hankin, pioneering standup, film and television actor and founding member of the San Francisco improvisational theater The Committee, returns to North Beach in May for an appearance at The Beat Museum in San Francisco. Larry will read and tell tales from his new book “That Guy: A Cautionary Memoir.”
“After a confrontational Graduation Day, I decided to run away with a Show Business Circus. Went to Greenwich Village and started bussing bars between 2am and 6am while doing Open Mic Nites at the coffee-houses all over The Village. Within a couple of months, I was opening for Woody Allen, Miles Davis, The Kingston Trio, on to “Second City” in Chicago, became a Founding Member of “The Committee” – A San Francisco attraction rivaling Second City…”
Select television and film credits from Larry’s 50+ year career in show business include Escape from Alcatraz, Trains, Planes and Automobiles, Seinfeld, Friends, Breaking Bad, El Camino, and Barry. Larry will be available to sell and sign copies of his book and meet fans and old friends. Copies of “That Guy: A Cautionary Memoir” will be available for $25 (cash only).
