This week’s tribute episode is dedicated to director and producer Ivan Reitman. Reitman was born in Czechoslovakia and arrived in Canada with his family as refugees, where he would get a job at a local television station, earn a Bachelor of Music, and begin directing short films. Some of his legendary directing and producing work includes National Lampoon's Animal House (1978), Meatballs (1979), Stripes (1981), Ghostbusters (1984), and Twins (1988). Ivan and Jason Reitman later became one of only two father/son producing teams nominated for a Best Picture Oscar for the film Up in the Air in 2010.
