Ten Things About Me
Who is me? Ten things you may not know.
- Omnivorous.
- I am a published poet with an MA in Literature, completing an MFA in Poetry. As Groucho Marx said, “No comedy writer should be without a fundamental understanding of post-Marxist discursive spatial theory.” Well said Groucho.
- My greatest accomplishment to date is winning the New Yorker Cartoon Contest.
- I once had to dress up as the Hamburglar. If only that was the most humiliating thing I did when I worked in Advertising. But not even close.
- I live in Los Angeles or Phoenix depending on the wind, the position of the moon, and what’s on television at the time.
- I am learning Yiddish. Nu, der emess? Ya, ya.
- The question I’m dying someone to ask me in a job interview: If you were a fruit, what fruit would you be? The answer I’m dying to give: A kiwi. Because the KEY is WE.
- I am getting married in the summer of 2010. Know a good band?
- I consume comedies without bias. From Old School to Big Lebowski to The Daily Show to Woody Allen to that clip on Youtube you just e-mailed.
- I will be happy to write for your [FEATURE FILM / TV SHOW / PRINT BASED PUBLICATION / WEB BASED PUBLICATION / GREETING CARD COMPANY / SON'S 5TH GRADE STATE REPORT]. Please be in touch.
