‘They Went Another Way: A Hollywood Memoir’ describes his day-to-day struggles experience in the entertainment industry.
Bruce Eric Kaplan is the author of “They Went Another Way.” Bruce Eric Kaplan wrote for “Seinfeld” and wrote for and was an executive producer of both “Six Feet Under” and “Girls.” He also has been a longtime contributing cartoonist to the New Yorker.
Kaplan spoke about the book recently by video from New York, where he and his family moved; he is currently executive producer on Netflix’s “Nobody Wants This.” The interview has been edited for length and clarity. Q. When you set out, did you know you wanted to publish this journal or was it more of a diary for yourself?
Absolutely. But whenever I write something, I hope it’s for everyone, no matter what the specificity is. To me, the book is about my family, my friends, my memories, my whole life or things I witnessed just going to the supermarket. To me, the book is about someone learning the things that he needs to learn, which, for me, is about being more present and living for the things that are important and letting go of the things that aren’t important. I just didn’t feel like I had a choice.
My thoughts are just my thoughts. They’re not really portraits of anyone else. I don’t really know these people.
