Gregg’s father is the late Jess Oppenheimer, head writer and producer of I Love Lucy. After leaving Lucy, the senior Oppenheimer went on to write and co-produce Get Smart and many other series. He also has the distinction of inventing the TelePropmTer, which was originally invented to help Lucille Ball read commercials.
Gregg will be the in-studio guest for Stu’s Show hosted by Stu Shostak on Shokus Internet Radio. He’ll discuss the painstaking restoration of every Lucy episode as well as his dad’s work on Lucy, battles with Desi Arnaz, and decision to leave after five seasons.
