| Introduction | Jim Bernhard holds an M.A. in English literature from England's University of Birmingham, where he was a Marshall Scholar and flâneur, and a B.A. in history from Rice University, where he was an inadvertent member of Phi Beta Kappa. He has pursued (though never actually caught) innumerable careers including those of author, playwright, lyricist, actor, newspaperman, college professor, theatrical producer, concert impresario, TV host, and cruciverbalist. He is purportedly the author of TINY TROUPERS: FAMOUS CHILD STARS AND WHAT BECAME OF THEM; 'SOMEBODY PEENCHED MY HET!' BACKSTAGE GOSSIP BY AN INDISCREET IMPRESARIO; THE TRUMPY LOVER, a translation of Moliere's LE MISANTHROPE; YOU'RE ON! THE THEATRE QUIZ BOOK; FINAL CHAPTERS: HOW FAMOUS AUTHORS DIED; PUNS, PUZZLES, AND WORD PLAY; PORCUPINE, PICAYUNE & POST; STARS IN YOUR EYES; and with his wife, Virginia, LIFE IS NOT A DRESS REHEARSAL (an Amazon ebook)--all of which have been overlooked for both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.
