COMPANY TOWN : Grey to Remain With Brillstein

“He really didn’t feel like leaving all the people who work for him at this stage of his career and all the people who depend on his management,” said a source close to Grey, who left on vacation Sunday. Grey’s clients include Garry Shandling, Chris Farley, Dana Carvey and Adam Sandler.
