How can you use “schulberg” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

His efforts to insinuate himself were so relentless that Cary Reich, the author of this sprawling new biography (and of an earlier biography of the financier André Meyer), refers to his subject as a "patrician Sammy Glick" (though he never reaches the heights of heeldom demonstrated by the hero of Budd Schulberg's novel about pre-war Hollywood back-stabbing).
Flick's name is clearly an hommage to Sammy Glick, the Hollywood hustler of Budd Schulberg's classic portrait of '30s ambition, What Makes Sammy Run ?
