Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Richie Tienken opened the Comic Strip on June 1, 1976, and effectively changed the face of comedy forever. At thirteen, he ran away from his home in the Bronx to Boston, where he got a job selling magazines door-to-door. He moved back to New York a year later and has since managed some of the biggest comedy stars, such as Eddie Murphy, Adam Sandler, and Colin Quinn. Jeffrey Gurian is a comedy writer, performer, director, author, producer, doctor, and healer. He's written material for comedy legends such as Rodney Dangerfield, Jerry Lewis, and Joan Rivers. He's also written for MTV, USA Network, and Friars Club Roasts. Since 1999, he's been writing a celeb-based online national entertainment column, "Comedy Matters," in Punchline Magazine. He currently teaches an online comedy class for the Learning Annex.
