The Resume

    (May 22, 1972- )
    Born in New York City, New York
    Son of Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft
    Writer for Saturday Night Live (2001-03)
    Appeared in episodes of Roseanne, Pacific Blue and 7th Heaven
    Wrote 'The Zombie Survival Guide' (2003) and 'World War Z' (2006)

Why he might be annoying:

    He said that dyslexia gave him an inferiority complex so 'I went to a loser college that wouldn't challenge me.'
    He declined to write the screenplay for the film adaptation of 'World War Z,' saying he is not experienced enough to 'do it right.' (Sounds like he still has that inferiority complex.)
    Some of his fans seem to take 'The Zombie Survival Guide' a little too seriously.
    He said, 'Everything in World War Z is based in reality... well, except the zombies.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He won an Emmy as an SNL writer.
    As one 'Zombie Survival Guide' fan noted, 'It's both entertaining and disturbing.'
    'World War Z' was praised for 'reinventing' the zombie genre.
    When the zombie outbreak does occur, the writer of this profile will probably wish he had taken 'The Zombie Survival Guide' more seriously.
