Albert Brooks
Born: July 22, 1947, in Los Angeles.
His real name is ALBERT EINSTEIN (seriously).
Comedian, writer, director, actor.
His brother, Robert, is SUPER DAVE OSBORNE.

Why isn't BROOKS the richest man in Hollywood? He should be, because, as his real name indicates, he is a genius.
BROOKS on the recent (2000) "real life" television shows: "This is a slow progression to the day when we'll all be gladiators, battling and killing each other. By 2006, we'll be watching people fight to the death. In 10 years the show will be: I can shoot you as soon as I see you. Just watch - it'll be legal in some country soon. Someone will take a chance on it. Tourism is down, the economy is bad, Fox has a new affiliate: 'Watch Jack get killed at 9 p.m.!'"
"Ok, I didn't make enough money! Call me a hippie! Send me to hell!"
POSTSCRIPT
"Great talents are the most lovely and often the most dangerous fruits on the tree of humanity.
They hang upon the most slender twigs that are easily snapped off."
