Biography

His "live auction comedy" long-form improv show, Going...Going...Gone (co-created with John Thomas) is staged monthly in Indianapolis and has been offered in other cities. It features different actors at every performance playing characters at the fictional Ed's Auction House. After Ed's death, everything in the auction house must be sold and the characters do that while telling stories about the objects. The actors don't know beforehand what they will have to sell and the audience bids (and keeps) the sold objects, using play money provided with their programs.

His novel The High-Impact Infidelity Diet, (co-written with Eric Pfeffinger) was released in 2005 by Random House/Three Rivers Press. His book, "Kid Culture" (co-written with Todd Tobias) was released in October 2008 by Cider Mill Press. A new parent's guide to kids' movies, TV, music, and books, it includes quizzes and opinionated guides.
