About the author

I sold my first television script, The Munsters, while still in college, yet girls continued to ignore me. A short time later I became the youngest staff writer for The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, earning an Emmy nomination which I’ve never quite lived up to. My producing and writing credits range from The Hollywood Squares to All in the Family, Sanford and Son, What's Happening, Gimme a Break, The Garry Shandling Show and way too many unsold pilots like, Who Needs Friends?! and The al-Qaida Comedy Hour. I am now retired and writing books from an island in the Caribbean. I’m sorry, but I couldn’t help it. All book profits go to support aspiring North Korean comedy writers, Blind Ping Pong Players and for a new typewriter.
