Keeping Up With Kathy Griffin

July 18, 2010

We couldn't have asked for a better gig than covering Kathy Griffin's book-signing for "Entertainment Tonight!" From start to finish, this San Diego video production was one belly laugh after another as Kathy lamented the engagement of her "My Life on the D-List" boy-toy Levi Johnston, and had a field day with Mel Gibson's phone recordings. The energetic comedian popped into Border's Books with her mom Maggie Griffin to promote Maggie's new book, Tip It! -- and sign copies of her own best-seller, Official Book Club Selection. My San Diego video crew and I squeezed in with the crowd of about 300 that crammed the bookstore to see and hear Kathy in person. And she didn't disappoint -- signing and posing for every last person!

Dr. Phil Just wanted to thank you for your steller professionalism last week during our very trying shoot with Paul and Nora. I have to say...that of all the shoots I've done....that ranks in the top 3 of all time difficult shoots I've ever experienced. As difficult as they were....I feel good about what we shot. Thanks for all your hard work. Hopefully our next shoot will be much easier...and they open the door the FIRST TIME.
