This is a round-table discussion on the lives and careers of The Marx Brothers, moderated by Donelle Dodegan, as part of her HOLLYWOOD’S HIDDEN TREASURES show on KABC radio in Los Angeles.

In addition to myself, Bill Marx (Harpo’s oldest son), Jade Marx (Groucho’s granddaughter), Gregg Marx (Gummo’s grandson) and a few Marx scholars share stories, memories, and comments about The Five Marx Brothers.

This was meant as a lead-in to the opening of the Legends of Laughter: The Marx Brothers exhibition at The Hollywood Museum.

I recently took part in a splendiferous celebration of The Marx Brothers at The Hollywood Museum (Hollywood & Highland). In addition to seeing all the goodies on display, it was great reconnecting with Bill Marx (Harpo’s 88-year-old adopted son), who was one of my favorite people during my Groucho years. I also got to spend time with Jade Marx (Groucho’s granddaughter and Melinda’s daughter), which was something of a mind-blower. One of my first official acts when I started working at Groucho’s in 1974 was witnessing a codicile to Groucho’s will because Jade had just been born and Groucho wanted to include her. Now she’s fifty.

Here’s a write-up, with some photos, about the event, plus photos of Gummo’s grandson, Gregg, and Jade and me – and a couple of shots of me regaling the audience with tales of Marx:
