He helped set the literary and theatrical standards of the nation from the 1920's through the early 1940's. He disovered Helen Hayes, Ruth Gordon, Katharine Cornell, Alfred Lunt, Lynn Fontain, the Marx Brothers, Fred & Adele Astaire, and turned W.C. Fields from a juggler to a comic and Will Rogers from a comedian to a writer. He was a friend of the mighty, the powerful and the clever."
