I was born in NYC.

I grew up playing in bands.

I’ve made 5 albums so far: The Laughing Man, Tock, Damascus, Tape Recorder, Evil Monkey Man.

I love your sister. I’m coming clean here.

I’ve made music and lyrics for 5 Broadway shows: The Full Monty, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Women On The Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, The Band’s Visit, and Tootsie.

I need to be with your sister. Please don’t hit me.

I’ve done a lot of other stuff: Comedy writing (for Letterman, Emmy award), film and TV writing and scoring (including Boardwalk Empire and the Carmen Sandiego theme) and other things.

Please tell your sister about the Emmy award.
