AND IT ONLY TOOK 100 YEARS… is the remarkable true story of a man who lived through a century of change—onstage, behind the camera, and in love. From his days as a young Broadway actor and struggling understudy to his rise as President of Warner Television, Alan Shayne built a life defined by artistry, perseverance, and integrity. Through triumphs and heartbreaks, he never stopped chasing excellence, whether guiding Hollywood’s brightest stars, producing Emmy-winning television, or shaping the future of entertainment with care and vision. Yet the real story unfolds far from the lights of Broadway or Hollywood. It’s found in his six-decades-long partnership with artist Norman Sunshine, a love story that endured secrecy, prejudice, and time itself.
