Bernie Brillstein DEAD
Bernie Brillstein is dead. Brillstein was one of the best in the business. Brillstein of Brillstein-Grey Entertainment, is dead at 77. Brillstein was a Hollywood talent agent, manager, producer and studio mogul.
His client list was enormous, and his love here in Los Angeles, even more.
Sadly Brillstein reportedly died of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease last night.
Brillstein started in the mail room at William Morris in 1956. His credits included “Hee Haw”, “Alf” and “Ghostbusters.”
Brillstein once said of his job “You’re a wife. You really are. You take care of everything and get them ready for the day. How do you take an actor or comedian or a writer and point them in the right direction and go through all that garbage unless you love it and love them and think they’re talented and worth it?”
Bernie will be missed.
