Laraine Newman was one of the founding members of the "Not Ready for Prime Time Players" in the glory days of "Saturday Night Live" (which is a while ago, alas) and she got a lot of good licks in. She never became a huge star like Jane Curtain or Gilda Radner but she was always funny and smart and hit her marks, as they say.

Now she has an audiobook out called [May you Live in Interesting Times] and it's worth a listen. It's not a line line line JOKE kind of book it's her life growing up and doing comedy and dealing with image stuff and insecurity stuff and body image stuff and drug stuff and other not fun things.

But it's also about her SNL friends and her later life doing voice overs and audio books and it's a lot of grand wonderful stories.

If you're my age and remember Laraine from those days, you might give it a look (or a listen) . Read by the author too, of course. ( )
