Producer

Trivia:

It was he, not Doris Day, who "turned down" the role of Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate. When the film's producer sent him the novel, he was reportedly so offended by it that he never even showed it to his wife, costing her the role that might have revived her film career. See more trivia »
