    The most prominent movie he directed was ‘Police Academy 6: City Under Siege.’ (1989)
    He taught courses in acting and directing at UCLA (1991-94), but stopped when he felt the students were too young to relate to his humor.

    He has been married to Rosalind DiTrapani for over 50 years.
    He was a member of the San Francisco-based improv troupe the Committee, along with Rob Reiner, Howard Hesseman, and David Ogden Stiers.
    He won an award from the Directors Guild of America for directing an episode of Murphy Brown.
    One of his pieces of advice: keeping the production crew happy is key to earning a good reputation as a director.
