Larry Gelbart: Bob Hope's Most Famous Writer
Bob Hope famously used to do a Christmas show that he would do from the front lines of wherever a war might be going. Larry Gelbart worked for him, and he was inspired by a tour of the Far East to write MASH. He did 48 Christmases out on the road. So 48 of his Christmases were spent in a different country performing to troops. But you're sorry. Hope you Christmas should have been the name of the church. Happy Christmas.
