Before I went to a meeting at the 'Harvard Lampoon,' I had no idea that there was even a comedy magazine at Harvard, let alone that you could write comedy potentially for a living.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I actually very rarely see comedy myself, and although I admire the work of some comics, it does come from all over, so I'll get a charge out of some fiction writers and poets.
Although I had a good job as an advertising manager for a shoe company in Boston, I really liked to fool around with comedy.
I wrote comedy sketches in college.
I want to write a book which is the history of comedy.
When I was growing up in comedy, there were maybe 10 comics in the whole country. Everyone had a day job. You worked free for years in little clubs, then you got your big break and became a star.
First and foremost, I just want to write comedy.
You can (be a middle-aged comic) if you work very hard at it, because comedy is really hard.
I used to like writing for comedians - I enjoyed the challenge of making other people funny.
I always tell people I went to the Harvard School of Comedy in front of America.
I came to Hollywood originally writing comedy and writing satire.
