Ex-television comedy writer Joseph Stein relaxes at his Manhattan apartment in New York City on June 25, 1971, while recalling how he and composer Jerry Book and lyricist Sheldon Harnick worked to put together the smash success musical "Fiddler on the Roof." It wasn't until an out-of-town tryout run that Stein "got a feeling" that they had all latched on to a venture of exceptional appeal. "This kind of thing only happens once in a lifetime," he reflects. (AP Photo/Jerry Mosey)
