Domain Attorney Ari Goldberger Goes Hollywood With Appearance on Hit HBO Series Curb Your Enthusiasm 

If you are among the millions of people who watch HBO's hit comedy Curb Your Enthusiasm on Sunday nights, you may have noticed what looked like a familiar face in a restaurant scene that aired November 8th (Episode #68 - "Officer Krupke"). If you said to yourself, "Hey, that guy in the background looks just like Ari Goldberger!" you would have been half right. The guy looked like the noted domain attorney because that's who it was! In the photo from the episode below, with co-stars Larry David and Cheryl Hines in the foreground, you can see Ari immediately to Cheryl's right at the table behind her.

Below is a closer view of Ari Goldberger to the right of series co-star Cheryl Hines.

Ari, who was featured in our June 2006 Cover Story (one that I believe was among our best ever), was not in this scene by accident. As his friends know (and as we reported in our profile about him), Goldberger has been involved in charitable giving and fundraising since he was 8 years old. When he learned that the producers of Curb Your Enthusiasm were trying to raise money for the Alzheimer's Foundation by auctioning off a visit to the show's set (complete with an opportunity to be an extra on the program) he stepped up and placed the highest bid.

That resulted in Ari traveling to Beverly Hills, California where he not only met the Curb Your Enthusiasm cast members but joined them in front of the cameras for the restaurant scene.

If you missed the episode when it first aired, it is available on Comcast OnDemand and as well as from many other OnDemand-capable cable providers. You can find more details about the "Officer Krupke" episode here. A special thank you goes out to Scott Ross who let me know about Ari's HBO debut and also secured and provided these publicity photos from the show so we could share them with you. Ari told me "It was a lot of fun and they treated us great on the set." That made it a win win for everyone, especially the Alzheimers Foundation, the organization this special event was all about.
