1/ It's 1985.
I just did stand-up on David Letterman the night before. Five minutes. I'm 27 years old and I think I've made it.
My agent calls me the next day and fires me. 2/ His name was Marty Klein.
Best agent in the business. His company was called APA. Represented Steve Martin. Johnny Cash. Martin Mull. The kind of guy who didn't need new clients and took me on anyway when I was nobody.
He didn't fire people. He built them. Image
