Zack McDermott

I was born in Wichita, KS and went to the University of Kansas for undergrad. I studied political science and African-American studies -- that was my favorite. I went to UVA Law and then became a public defender in Brooklyn in 2008.

As soon as I moved to New York I started doing stand up comedy. My "career" was derailed by my first psychotic break and a trip to the psych ward. My book takes it from there.

I've contributed to This American Life, New York Times, Gawker, Deadspin, Morning Edition, SplitSider among others.
