Holly’s career
Holly established Epiphany Alliance Inc. as well, and he represented authors such as Nell Benjamin, Laurence O’Keefe, Matthew Flanagan, and David McHugh.
Sons & Daughters was produced by him and a former client, writer-director Fred Goss. The single-camera comedy about a blended family, which was created with Lorne Michaels’ Broadway Video, ran for 11 episodes in March and April 2006.
In the episode, Goss played a struggling Ohio guy who lives with his wife and children, his child from a former marriage, his remarried mother, his great-aunt, his stepfather, and his sisters, half-sisters, nephews, and nieces.
In a 2006 interview with the Associated Press, Holly said that instead of a standard script, the performers were handed a “short tale,” which “sometimes has a line or two of speech but is usually just this novelization.” There was no laugh track for the series. In 2011, he collaborated with Goss to write for the YouTube animated comedy The LeBrons.
