ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Paul Gitlin was the longtime attorney, literary agent, and close confidant to best-selling author Harold Robbins. Their professional and personal relationship spanned roughly 35 years, with Gitlin playing a critical role in skyrocketing Robbins to massive financial success. While the publishing industry was notoriously fickle, Robbins stayed with Gitlin as his representative from 1959 until Gitlin's death in 1998. Beyond business, they were incredibly close friends who famously celebrated with champagne whenever a new book was completed or a major new contract was signed.
