(That's where Jack and I were different. He would let his hair down, I just took mine off.) The point is, Joan Benny was there. She had a front row seat. And most of all, the great pleasure of this book is that so much of it is in Jack's own voice. So the pages that follow should make for interesting reading. I miss Jack. He was a nice man." --George Burns Other books about Jack Benny are available from Bookshare.
