Leonard Katzman's Own James Beaumont

[Frank Underwood]

A YouTuber named Ethan Klein recently revealed that his biological grandfather is Leonard Katzman. Klein's father Gary is Katzman's first born child. Katzman ended up abandoning the child and his mother to start a family with another woman. Shortly after, the child's mother put him up for adoption. Although JR never knew James existed until he was an adult, I can't help but wonder if that storyline was partly inspired by Katzman's own illegitimate son. I recall writer/producer Howard Lakin stated every character on the show had a facet of Katzman, so it would make sense.

Here's a video of Klein discussing his relationship to Katzman. Just a heads up that he uses some very harsh words:

I don't know that much about Klein, but his reputation is that of someone who is self-destructive. Nobody seems to like him.

Does he still wear a diaper?

That's pretty much all I know about him too (I'm not sure about the diaper.)

Awhile back, Klein was roasted for claiming Joe Rogan is unhealthy. That wasn't too smart considering there are half naked photos of Klein's doughy body floating around.

I find it interesting that people assume Klein's success is due to nepotism. Katzman certainly wasn't above giving jobs to the family members he claimed.

Yeah both Frank Katzman and Mitchell Wayne Katzman both served as Associate Producers on Dallas.

As for the diaper who knows but going by the language in the video this guy is full of shit!

And racist shit too.

I don't dispute that what Leonard Katzman did by abandoning his son was very wrong, in fact he's gone down in my estimation now. I don't like to speak ill of the dead because they can't defend themselves. So all I'm going to say is that I'm very disappointed in him and leave it at that.

Wow, how very sad. Says a lot about Lenny Katzman's total lack of integrity. You may be unhappy in the relationship and need to leave it, but be a man and stay involved in the life of the child that you're responsible for creating.

Oh, thuh self-editing.

Yeah the fact that he just walked away from his own child speaks volumes!

I might be gay but if I was ever put in that position (which is of course highly unlikely) I would never walk away from my own flesh & blood.

The fact that he did do just that just beggars belief. He was truly an awful human being for doing that.
