For years, Frank Rich was chief drama critic for the New York Times, where he’s now an op-ed columnist. He’s written a memoir - “Ghost Light.”  Rich tells Jim Fleming that the Broadway musicals of his childhood were all about dysfunctional families and helped him cope with his own difficult family situation - his parents were divorced and his stepfather loved theater, but was occasionally abusive.
