Ed is a graduate of the Second City and Upright Citizens Brigade theater programs. He went on to write and produce for both networks. His award winning stage play, “Long Lost John” is based on the early friendship of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. It won the prize at the Broadway Bound Theater Festival in 20218, and was later developed into a Drama Therapy program to support bereaved youth and parents. Ed enjoys writing articles on pop culture and music for periodicals like Culture Sonar. He’s a big fan of “immersive” storytelling and has studied, volunteered and worked with the innovative Third Rail Projects in New York. He’s been a guest lecturer at Liverpool Hope University, UK, and at Monmouth University, where he spoke about the Beatles impact on culture. When he’s not busy working on two upcoming books, Ed enjoys performing stand up comedy in Brooklyn, NY.
