The speaker is Steve Allen, actor, comic, writer, musician, creator of the tonight show, and so much more. The dialogue with him was recorded in 1989. He was a prolific talent on radio, TV, compose thousands of songs, acted in movies, wrote books, was a well-known science skeptic, and the all-around good guy. He is a cofounder of the Tonight Show where he had as guests many of the most famous folks of his time including Elvis Presley and Jerry Lewis. His second marriage was to Jayne Meadows. He died in 2000 after being bumped by another car which broke free of his ribs and caused internal bleeding at 78 years old. I was fortunate to have interviewed him for my TV series on the 1960s. He knew the depression era in the 1950s and was uniquely articulate in presenting his point of view. Search his name on my KZfaq channel to find other clips from his interview.
