| Introduction | I have been professional writer for 27 years. The first thing I ever sold professionally were jokes as a freelance writer to Joan Rivers when she used to guest host for Johnny Carson on the “Tonight Show.” When I heard a joke I had written being performed on late night television I jumped up and angrily shouted, “Hey that’s my joke.” Then I got my composure, realized what had happened and I smiled and said, “Hey, that’s my joke.” (I'm not really that smart, plus I was half asleep anyway.) After that I did freelance writing for numerous comedians who have performed on the Las Vegas Strip including for Jay Leno when he was also guest hosting on the “Tonight Show.” My other writing credits include working freelance (I'm not real big on working for others, am I?) for advertising agencies where I did various forms of script writing including over a hundred commercials for both radio and TV. I also hosted a weekly radio talk show in the early 90’s for about a year. |
