Commonwealth Club - SF Club Office
From his starring role as Meathead on the popular 1970s sitcom "All in the Family" to his blockbuster films The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally and A Few Good Men, Reiner has been entertaining audiences for decades with his singular humor and artistic vision. As a director, he's worked with A-list actors Jack Nicholson, Tom Cruise, and Kathy Bates, as well as celebrated writers Nora Ephron and Aaron Sorkin. Son of comedic genius Carl Reiner, he grew up in a political family where civil rights were a frequent topic around the kitchen table. A Hollywood legend and political activist, Reiner joins us to talk politics around our proverbial table. In light of the Supreme Court's recent decision to hear challenges to both Proposition 8 and DOMA, Reiner will discuss his views on the future of marriage equality, his involvement in other political causes, and his incredible contributions to the entertainment industry.
