What life as a standup comic is like

In the late 1980s, just a few years into the start of the stand up explosion, a young writer producer named Betsy Borns put together a book about stand up comedians and how they work.

In this 1987 interview Borns examines the challenges and rewards faced by comics like Jerry Seinfeld, Richard Lewis, Judy Tenuta, and Jay Leno.
