I met actress & stand-up comedian Hannah Einbinder at my local ice-cream shoppe, Farmacy, in Carroll Gardens, BKNY. We talked about her great HBO show Hacks, Molly Crabapple’s new book Here Where We Live Is Our Country, and Hannah’s upcoming horror movie Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma. She was super nice and I look forward to the finale of Hacks this Thursday.
Here’s a Red Hook comic I did for The Red Hook Star-Revue titled “Dead Meat.”
I was visiting my mother in Florida when I got the call from actor/cartoonist Tony Wolf. When he told me what he was concocting, I immediately said “Yes.” Six weeks later he would have what would become TIMES LIKE THESE.
