I met Gene Shalit when I was working at a jazz radio station in NY in the late 1970s. He was funny, personable, and a very knowledgeable movie critic who never took himself too seriously. Sorry to hear he has died, at age 100. May he rest in peace. people.com/gene-shalit-...?
Gene Shalit has died at the age of 100. Shalit was a reviewer and culture commentator on the 'Today' show for 40 years. He was known for his frequent puns and his iconic mustache.
