This will take some explanation. At left is Mark Cendrowski, director of the hit comedy series The Big Bang Theory and venerable brother to me, Dwight Cendrowski. With him is Kevin Hearn, multi-instrumentalist member of the music group Barenaked Ladies. The Ladies wrote the theme song for the show, and on a recent visit to the set of the show, Mark pulled out some old photos of himself and Dwight when they were performing as a comedy act called Ski Squared. (To the second power. Get it?) Long, long time ago. But great fun.
Watched the BNL/BBT video and wondered, "Who is that in the Michigan Hockey Jersey?" Finally figured it out. Tell your brother that it is good to see the Maize and Blue connected to such a great TV show.
Mark is always a good ambassador for Michigan. He comes to the University of Michigan a couple times a year to give talks and seminars with film/TV students.
Speaking of photos, I recently came across one from 1977 with Mark, Dave Coulier, Jim Saylor, and Larry Petrie, dressed for their infamous KISS act. My brother Peter Gigliotti (also ND '77) took the photos. Great to see Mark has carried his positive creative energy this far! Lisa Gig (DHS '79)
