Legendary Actor Barry Bostwick Guests On Harvey Brownstone Interviews
Barry Bostwick is a legendary actor who has brought us dozens of unforgettable performances in a career spanning over 5 decades.
On Broadway, Barry Bostwick originated the role of “Danny Zuko” in “Grease”, for which he was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical. He got another Tony Award nomination for his performance in “They Knew What They Wanted”, and he WON a Tony Award and got a Drama Desk Award nomination for his performance in “The Robber Bridegroom”. He also appeared on Broadway in “Cock-a-Doodle Dandy”, “Hamlet”, “Soon” and “Nick & Nora”, and he starred in the national tour of “The Pirates of Penzance”.
On the big screen, while it is certainly true that Barry Bostwick will forever be immortalized as Susan Sarandon’s straight-laced, all-American boyfriend “Brad” in “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”, there can be no question that his talent, versatility and diverse body of work extend FAR beyond that one phenomenally successful cult classic movie. His many other movie credits include “Megaforce”, “Weekend at Bernie’s 2”, “Project: Metalbeast”, “Spy Hard”, “Evening”, “Holiday Baggage”, “Bedrooms”, “Finding Joy”, “The Field”, and of course, “Movie Movie”, for which he was nominated for a National Society of Film Critics Award and a New York Film Critics Circle Award.
On television, we all remember Barry Bostwick as the childish, vain and outrageously inept mayor “Randall Winston” in the classic TV sitcom, “Spin City”. He’s also appeared in many other iconic TV shows like “Charlie’s Angels”, “Hawaii Five-O”, “Foul Play”, “Scrubs”, “Ugly Betty”, “Ghost Whisperer”, “Nip Tuck”, “Glee”, “Hot in Cleveland”, and he’s had recurring roles in numerous shows like “Law & Order: SVU”, “Cougar Town”, “Research”, “Inside the Extras Studio”, “Still the King”, “Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce” and “The Potwins”.
He’s also starred in dozens of great TV movies and miniseries including “The Quinns”, “You Can’t Take it With You”, “Scruples”, “Red Flag: The Ultimate Game”, “George Washington”, “A Woman of Substance”, “Till We Meet Again”, “The Last U-Boat”, “Depth Charge”, “A Christmas Miracle”, and last but certainly not least, the multi-award winning miniseries “War and Remembrance”, for which he won a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor in a historic TIE with his co-star Sir John Gielgud.
Harvey Brownstone is a retired judge of the Ontario Court of Justice and was the first openly gay judge in Canada. He is also the bestselling author of “Tug of War: A Judge’s Verdict on Separation, Custody Battles and the Bitter Realities of Family Court” and hosted “Family Matters with Justice Harvey Brownstone,” a television talk show on matters involving the family justice system.
After a distinguished legal career, Harvey was appointed a judge at the age of 38 in 1995. He has presided in family and criminal courts. He has been a trailblazer in several ways. He was the first openly gay judge in Canada. He was the first sitting judge in the world to write a national best seller and to host a TV talk show.
Harvey has been a role model and icon in the LGBTQ community. When same-sex marriage was legalized in Canada in 2003, he was the only judge to make himself publicly available to officiate at weddings for lesbian and gay couples travelling to Toronto from all over the world to get married. In 2007, he officiated at the wedding of Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer, the American couple whose marriage triggered the 2013 United States Supreme Court decision overturning the definition of “spouse” in the federal Defense of Marriage Act.
In February 2021, Harvey launched his online talk show “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” on his own YouTube channel. He saw this as an interesting hobby. Within several months, the show attracted hundreds of thousands – and then eventually, millions – of viewers. Because of the overwhelming success of the show, Harvey decided to retire from the judiciary on December 31, 2021 after having presided as a full-time judge for 26 1/2 years. Free from the constraints imposed upon judges regarding the expression of opinions and the endorsement of private enterprise, Harvey now happily devotes his full-time attention to hosting “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” as a regular member of the public – albeit one with a rather illustrious and unique career history.

“A true mystery… It was really good! So many twists. I was hooked!” – BookishPenguin
Jara Quinn’s life changed forever in college when her parents were killed in a car accident, leaving her adrift and grieving. Determined to honor their memory, she completed her studies and found solace in the arms of Katerina Lansing, the passionate and ambitious woman who became her first love. But after graduation, life pulled them in different directions—Jara joined the FBI, driven by a need for justice, while Katerina pursued a law career, dedicated to upholding the truth. Though they stayed in touch, their relationship became a bittersweet friendship rather than the romance they once shared.
Years later, Katerina’s world is turned upside down when her father announces his bid for president and her beloved grandmother dies under suspicious circumstances after learning her Foundation was hemorrhaging money. Desperate and unsure whom to trust, Katerina reaches out to Jara for help. Reunited, the spark between them reignites while they confront the mysteries surrounding Katerina’s powerful family.
As the pair delves deeper, they uncover hidden truths, dangerous alliances, and a sinister plot that threatens the people they hold dear. The dangers they face test not only their courage but the fragile bond of their rekindled love.
In the face of secrets, betrayal, and imminent danger, Jara and Katerina must decide if their love is real and strong enough to withstand the darkness that surrounds them. With lives at stake and time running out, can they protect Katerina’s family and find a way to heal themselves?
Don’t miss your chance to be among the first to enter the nest.

About the Author
Lee Sato lives in Indianapolis, Indiana, with her partner of 20 years. A graduate of Franklin College with a B.A. in Psychology and Journalism, Sato spent more than three decades immersed in some of society’s darkest realities. Her career included working with gangs in the 1980s, adolescent and child psychiatry in the 1990s, and investigating crimes against children until her retirement in 2017.
Throughout it all, the faces of troubled teens and abused children remained with her. “Closure and justice were rarely the outcome,” she reflects. Writing became a way to process what couldn’t be forgotten — not through case notes or reports, but through storytelling.
Encouraged by her partner, she returned to a lifelong love of writing and crafted the powerful narrative that would become her debut novel. Hornet’s Nest marks the beginning of a new creative chapter, one born from real-life experience, empathy, and an unflinching look into the human condition.am
