Playboy Interview with Mike Nichols: June 1966 Issue

As 2014 comes to a close, newspapers, like USA Today, and TV news programs, like CBS Sunday Morning, have begun to pay tribute to news makers, celebrities, athletes, humanitarians, etc. who died this year.

Entertainment losses this year include Mike Nichols (1931-2014), remembered for his work as a film and theater director, producer, actor and comedian.  

He was the featured interview in the June 1966 issue of Playboy.

While going through these single-panel cartoons recently, I came across this one, syndicated for May 1977 publication; it's unfortunately also relevant for the current historic drought conditions in California.
