Inscribed Photograph signed: "To Tom/Peace/Rob Reiner" and "Jean Stapleton", B/w 4x6. Family photo for the TV sitcom that aired from 1971-1979. Without being preachy or making its characters unlikable, this Norman Lear production dealt candidly with many American social problems and prejudices. The show was #1 in the Nielsen ratings during its first five seasons. Multi-talented ROB REINER has one of Hollywood's more remarkable careers, having gone from celebrity's son to comedy writer to TV actor to one of Hollywood's most successful producers and directors. He is the son of comedy giant Carl Reiner. Rob co-founded the improvisational comedy troupe The Session and then became a comedy writer for such shows as The Smothers Brothers' Comedy Hour. Reiner starred as Mike Stivic, Archie Bunker's son-in-law on All in the Family (1971-1978), taking two Emmys before he left. He then turned to directing films; some of which include Stand By Me (1986), When Harry Met Sally (1989), Misery (1990), A Few Good Men (Best Picture Oscar nomination, 1993) and Ghosts of Mississippi (1996). Reiner has also continued to act in films.Stage, screen and television actress JEAN STAPLETON (born in 1923) is best known for her role as Edith Bunker, aka "Dingbat", in the popular TV sitcom, All in the Family (1971-1980). Although the Emmy Award-winning "Edith" opened the show each week with a screeching rendition of "Those Were the Days", Stapleton not only possessed a lilting, well-modulated singing voice, but she was far from a "dingbat" in real life. She endeared herself to Broadwayites with her wistfully funny characterizations in the SRO musicals Damn Yankees, Bells Are Ringing and Funny Girl, roles that she would carry over into the film versions of these hits. Most of her onscreen work could be found in New York-based movies (Something Wild, Up the Down Staircase and Klute) and TV series (Car 54, Where Are You?, The Defenders and The Patty Duke Show). Stapleton has also made a number of other feature films, including You've Got Mail (1998), and has been a guest star on a number of other TV shows. Fine condition.
