Summary

In the summer of 2014, Mike Nichols sat down with his friend and colleague Jack O'Brien to discuss Nichols' early career: his stint as a '50s sketch performer with The Compass Players and Second City, the comedy partnership with Elaine May that turned both into stars, and his shift to directing in the mid-'60s, when he enjoyed phenomenal success on Broadway and in Hollywood, winning acclaim as a first-time film director with Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
