To his fans, Johnny Carson was a towering personality – he was witty, incredibly charming and always, always entertaining. Not only did he pioneer the late night talk show format; more importantly, he built a brand that has endured five decades and one that will forever be linked to ‘The Tonight Show.‘ On the screen, he was a larger than life personality, but ask his long time attorney and business partner, Henry Bushkin how he was behind the curtain, and you’ll likely hear otherwise. In his tell-all memoir – Johnny Carson – Bushkin paints a portrait of an iconic worldwide star who despite his fame, lived most of his life with a fragile personality.
