Rick Shaw





























Rick Shaw wrote many of my most favorite episodes.
He has had a long and varied career in show business. He worked as a stand-up comedian and started out in the TV writing business by writing questions for game shows such as Card Sharks and $25,000 Pyramid. In 1975, he wrote for the sitcom, Jeffersons. He also had a couple of minor roles in two movies,
Bikini Summer (1992) andThe Pamela Principle (1991).

One day he met Fran Drescher at a movie theater and was hired to work on The Nanny.
