Simpson's Writer Mike Reiss, Author of Springfield Confidential

Today on The Neil Haley Show, The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Simpson's Writer Mike Reiss, Author of Springfield Confidential.

Sam was right about one thing—no one’s career was hurt. Now an international sensation, The Simpsons is the longest-running animated sitcom of all time, and Mike Reiss, a four-time Emmy winner, is one of the few writers, producers and showrunners, who has worked on the series since its very first episode. In celebration of The Simpsons’ 30th anniversary this year, there are few better suited to bring an inside look at the making of one of the most famous shows in television history. Dey Street Books is thrilled to present SPRINGFIELD CONFIDENTIAL: Jokes, Secrets, and Outright Lies from a Lifetime Writing for The Simpsons (on-sale June 12, 2018), by Mike Reiss and co-author Mathew Klickstein. Featuring a foreword by Judd Apatow and exclusive interviews with Dan Castellenata, Nancy Cartwright, David Copperfield, Conan O’Brien, Jon Lovitz, and many other celebrated personalities, SPRINGFIELD CONFIDENTIAL provides the first and most complete narrative history of the series.

MIKE REISS is a former head writer for The Simpsons, a show for which he has won four Emmy Awards. He is a graduate of Harvard University, where he served as president of the Harvard Lampoon, and currently lives in New York, New York. His books for children include How Murray Saved Christmas, Santa Claustrophobia, and The Boy Who Looked Like Lincoln, all illustrated by David Catrow.
