Back in the 90s I attended a writing seminar given by Neil's brother Danny at Duke University. It was great.
Right at the end Neil showed up unexpectedly because his play 'Laughter on the 23rd floor" was test-launching in Durham. He answered questions. He was great.
My screenplay agent at the time told me that Neil assigned all royalties to 'The Odd Couple' to his brother. He said Danny was an inspiration because he would put doilys on his doilys.
Don't know if this is true but it's fun.
