Michael Gerber (parodist)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michael Gerber (born June 14, 1969) is the author of the Barry Trotter series, million-selling parodies of the Harry Potter books. Before becoming a novelist, Gerber contributed humor to The New Yorker, Saturday Night Live, and many other venues.
More recently, he has written Freshman and Sophomore, half of a four book series which follows a student's progress through the mythical, Ivy/Oxbridge-inflected Stutts University. In writing these satirical novels, Gerber draws upon his experiences as a student at Yale University, specifically his activities on The Yale Record college humor magazine. Gerber currently lives in Santa Monica, California.
