For those that don't know, James Lipton was one of the writers for the script to the 1985 movie, Copacabana, starring Barry Manilow and Annette O'Toole. He also was married at one time to Nina Foch, who Barry said was his acting coach many years ago.

I wonder if he actually heard the 3 things he wanted to hear God say (if heaven exists) when one arrives at the pearly gates, as that was always one of his top 10 questions to his celebrity guests on Inside the Actor's Studio.

Let's hope so.

Here’s the link to his obit in The Hollywood Reporter. His work on the Copacabana TV movie is actually mentioned in it, towards the end.
