Manny Azenberg has produced shows on Broadway since 1966. He produced sixty five plays and musicals, earned twenty five Tony Award nominations and won nine Tony Awards. In 2012, he won the Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre. In this heartfelt memoir, Manny sits down with his daughter to share his life’s story. It is the story of a Jewish kid growing up in the Bronx, whose life and career adhered to values and principles: work hard, behave well, treat people with dignity and respect, don’t welch, and seek balance. Manny’s stories of his childhood in the Bronx, his service in the Army, his teaching career at Duke University, and his long and illustrious career on Broadway are told with warmth and humor; they are a chronicle of one of the most legendary Broadway careers of our time, as well as a life well lived.
