Neal Pollack (born March 1, 1970) is an American satirist, novelist, short story writer, and journalist. He lives in Austin, Texas. Pollack has written ten books: The Neal Pollack Anthology of American Literature, Never Mind the Pollacks, Beneath the Axis of Evil, Alternadad,Stretch,Jewball, Downward-Facing Death,Open Your Heart,Repeat, and Keep Mars Weird. He is also a three-time Jeopardy! champion.
Career
Pollack's eccentric literary career has seen many highs and lows since he burst into literary fame with the publication of his first book in 2000, a journey that was chronicled in a far-reaching confessional interview with The Onion newspaper in May 2013.
After graduating from Northwestern University's Medill School Of Journalism, Pollack worked as a staff reporter for the Chicago Reader from 1993 to 2000, covering Chicago city politics and writing profiles of urban eccentrics. Meanwhile, he performed with various improv comedy troupes around Chicago, including ImprovOlympic (where he studied with Del Close) and the Free Associates. After Dave Eggers's magazine McSweeney's began publishing his work, Pollack began appearing in shows with Eggers, John Hodgman, Sarah Vowell, Zadie Smith, David Byrne, Arthur Bradford, They Might Be Giants, M. Doughty, and many others before parting ways with McSweeney's in 2003.
"We now have evidence that Saddam Hussein is in possession of cartoon trucks. Because (they) are cartoon trucks, that means that they can fall into a very deep canyon with an anvil attached to them and still survive."
"Typically, the protagonist of a noir work is an alienated loner. A Packer fan in Chicago -- who could be more alienated than that?"
"I decided that I wanted to do my own collection about a city that I knew something about,"
"I can't think of any other city that has a self-styled working class of intellectuals. Educated men who don't have college. If you hang out in bars long enough, you're gonna hear some things."
"I wanted a 1950s, jazzy feel. Neal asked me what section of the city I wanted to do, and I totally wanted to do the Green Mill. I wanted to do that neighborhood."
At an 80's trivia event at the Austin Book Festival Neal Pollack, The World's Greatest Living Author, was challenged to give an impassioned pep talk about the 80's. This was the result.
