Drew is one of the owners of Gerlanda’s, a pair of terrific Italian restaurants that have been a fixture at Rutgers University for 40 years. He’s also been an actor who’s performed in New York and regional theaters as well as on TV.

We talk about how he got started in the food business, the importance of good partners and how you can’t always believe your beloved grandmother. We’ll also find out how a radio interview helped launch his acting career and the unexpected ways life imitates art.
