GREG MANDEL (Adam)
One of the careers with which Greg Mandel (A.K.A. Greg Lawrence) once experimented was operating a small pizza and pasta restaurant in Simi Valley, California, with his brother David. Though they developed a happy and faithful clientele, they found themselves bored with the restaurant business after two years and decided to sell. Greg, an avid water and snow skier, currently works as a production assistant for New Wave Entertainment (in Burbank, California), which produces trailers for new, upcoming films and radio and TV spots.
Greg was recently married (his wife's name is Teri). They have no children, but dote on five cats. Greg and David's mother admits that her sons are typical products of the 1970s and 1980s, and says she's a parent from the fifties who prefers to see them well-educated, with their feet firmly planted on a path toward responsible and lucrative futures. "Not only are they gorgeous, bright, and extremely creative young men," she says, "but they are warm, generous, caring, and beloved by friends and family alike."
