September, 2008 Toronto, Canada by VERONICA MATHER VERONICA MATHER: Starring Brian Linehan is your first book. Were you surprised by the reaction to it? GEORGE ANTHONY: Yes. Stunned. V.M.: The reviews were overwhelmingly positive. G.A.: Yes. V.M.: You hadn’t anticipated any of it? G.A.: No. Not at all. I had no idea how people would react Especially critics. V.M.: Why ‘especially’ critics? G.A.: Because I’m not a member of the club anymore, not for years now. And neither was Brian, not ever. So … V.M.: The ‘club’? G.A.: Yes, the club, the media fraternity. V.M.: You were a ‘club’ member when you wrote for the Toronto Sun. G.A.: Yes, but for the last 15 years I hadn’t written anything much longer than a memo. V.M.: At the CBC, while you were winning all those awards. G.A.: I knew I liked you. (laughs) But no, seriously, I didn’t win any awards. V.M.: Your shows did. G.A.: Yes, my shows did. V.M.: More than 100 Gemini awards. G.A.: So I’m told. V.M.: You don’t know? G.A.: I stopped counting after the first 10 or 12. I didn’t want to jinx it, didn’t want to press my luck. I was lucky to work on all those shows. V.M.: And you’re still at CBC.
