  • Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Steve Guttenberg, Award Winning Actor, Author, “Time to Thank: Caregiving for my Hero”
    About Harvey's guest:
    Today’s special guest, Steve Guttenberg, is a beloved and multi-award winning actor, producer, director and author who’s brought us dozens of memorable performances in classic movies including “The Boys From Brazil”, “Diner”, “Cocoon”, “Short Circuit”, “Bedroom Window”, “Surrender”, “Three Men and a Baby”, “Roe v. Wade” and of course, the four great “Police Academy” movies.
    He also wrote, directed, produced and starred in “PS Your Cat is Dead”. And for his performance in “A Novel Romance”, he won a Best Actor Award from the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival.
    On TV you’ve seen him in many shows and movies including “To Race the Wind”, “Miracle on Ice”, “The Day After”, “Veronica Mars”, “Law and Order: Criminal Intent”, “Sons of Liberty”, “Ballers”, “The Goldbergs” and “Party Down”, for which he was nominated for a Gold Derby Award for Best Guest Comedy Actor. And of course, we all remember his amazing performances on Season 6 of “Dancing with the Stars”.
    And on the stage, he starred in “The Boys Next Door” in London's West End, and “Prelude to a Kiss” and “Honeymoon Motel” on Broadway, as well as “Furthest From The Sun”, “Henry the 4th” and numerous other theatrical productions. He earned a Daytime Emmy Award nomination for producing an episode of the CBS Schoolbreak Special called “Gangs”. And in 2011, he received a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
    And if all of that weren’t enough, our guest is also a best selling author. His first book, “The Guttenberg Bible”, is a comedic account of his first 10 years in the film industry. He then wrote a terrific children’s book called “The Kids from DISCO”, and on May 21, his brand new book, entitled, “Time to Thank: Caregiving for my Hero”, will be released. The book is a heartwarming and at times heart wrenching memoir of our guest’s unbreakable bond with his wise, loving and devoted father - his hero - as he chronicles his newfound role as a caregiver in his father’s final years, reflecting on their eventful life together, and the enduring impact of their extraordinarily close relationship. Our guest is also a renowned philanthropist.
    He started the Guttenhouse Project, which provides housing in Los Angeles for foster care youth when they turn 18. He also organized a campaign to provide glasses for children whose families cannot afford vision care. In fact, the Entertainment Industry Foundation selected him to be Ambassador for Children's Issues, because of his work on behalf of children and the homeless. In addition, he has served as an honourary board member of the Lymphatic Education & Research Network. And he’s also a passionate advocate for animal welfare, through his work with the Fun Paw Care organization. In 2008, he received the Tony Randall Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in the entertainment industry, as well as his community service.

    Steve was so complimentary of Harvey's interviewing skill, questions and caring - and rightfully so. What a wonderful interview this was Harvey. You seemed to have touched a man very deeply, someone who gave us a lot of laughs and quality entertainment. That is a big mitzvah. Well done, my friend! Excellent.

    Another Five-Star interview, wow!
    You really made him feel wonderful about his self, I will say that thats how you make everyone feel... wonderful!
    It was really hard to hear about him sitting alone, feeling alone, and forgetting all the great achievements & charity work he has done. What a special person he is, and Im glad you reminded him of that!
    Harvey, I hope you realize all the great qualities, and all the special moments you have given to others in your life...many, many more then we'll ever know, Im sure!!
    I started crying when your discussion was ended with Steve thanking you, and telling you what he thought of you...he believes it & I do too!!!

    This interview was top notch. It’s hard to top the Bob Wagner interview. This may be close. The only reason why it may not top it is quite simply due to sartorial exclusion of a tie.

    Hollywood has helped to push the youth trend as having the most value. As you age, your value decreases in Hollywood's mind. Steve's perspective on life only comes about after you have had some life. Such a great quality and such a great man. I wish there were more movies made from a mature perspective that displays the humility, wisdom and appreciation for life that Steve displays in this interview. Again well done Harvey.

In my mind, your interviews are the Olympics of Interviews. You really pull things out of people in a way no one else does. You do your research. You are always kind and respectfull. I think all the people you talk to go away with a smile on their face and saying job well done as there is an opportunity to show who they really are in your interviews.That is truly special
