About the author

Stephen Glenn "Steve" Martin is an American actor, comedian, writer, playwright, producer, musician, and composer. He was raised in Southern California in a Baptist family, where his early influences were working at Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm and working magic and comedy acts at these and other smaller venues in the area. His ascent to fame picked up when he became a writer for the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, and later became a frequent guest on the Tonight Show.

In the 1970s, Martin performed his offbeat, absurdist comedy routines before packed houses on national tours. In the 1980s, having branched away from stand-up comedy, he became a successful actor, playwright, and juggler, and eventually earned Emmy, Grammy, and American Comedy awards.

Steve Glenn Martin? More like Steve "Incomprehensible Avant-Garde Bullshit" Martin

[The Art Book Review · Rating 4 out of 5]

"Steve Martin, a household name, has been famous for over fifty years. He is a comedian, actor, writer, musician, art lover, and just a guy (but not in a messy James Franco kind of way.)" --Samantha Roth on Steve Martin's "WASP"

Twisted story. Great to perform in!

Read for ENG 2520. I loved this one too, more than Picasso at the Lupine Agile. It was very literal and it made me laugh multiple times. So witty.
