Gary Shandling began his illustrious career as a highly
regarded writer for such renowned 1970's sitcoms as Sanford and Son and
Welcome Back, Kotter. In 1975, Shandling made his stand-up debut at The
Comedy Store in Los Angeles. In the comedy club scene, he happened to
spark the interest of Joan Rivers, who brought him to the attention of
Johnny Carson and in 1981, Shandling made his first appearance on The
Tonight Show going on to serve as the guest host on numerous occasions.
From 1986 to 1990, in addition to frequent appearances on "The Tonight
Show," Gary Shandling was the star and executive producer of the
CableACE Award-winning series "It's Gary Shandling's Show" and
served as host of the Grammy Awards in 1990 and 1991.
Gary Shandling credits his experience of filling in for Johnny Carson
as the genesis of the HBO hit series, The Larry Sanders Show. His sophisticated
HBO lampoon, of the late-night world's on-air posturing and behind-the-scenes
chaos led to massive critical acclaim.
Although SANDERS was his first series for HBO, Gary Shandling is no stranger
to the network, having previously been seen on HBO in Comic Relief III,
1991's HBO Comedy Hour: Gary Shandling: Stand-Up and Comic Relief V.
