The next one had an impossible young John Rubenstein as the guest star and Louise Latham playing his mother.
John Rubinstein's father was, of course, the accomplished pianist, Arthur. His mother, Nela, also had a claim to fame, however. She was an accomplished cook, specializing in the foods of her native Poland, and at the urging of editor Judith Jones (who was working with Arthur on his memoirs) wrote
Nela's Cookbook, considered one of the best books on the food of Poland (now, sadly, out of print).
Which, of course, raises the question: How is it that John Rubinstein has never had more meat on his bones?
