Keenan Joe

American novelist, script writer, producer and playwright, he is a twin as well. He wrote his first play while a senior in high school and went on to coproduce the award winning sitcom, "Frasier" and another less popular "Out of Practice." He has written three novels with the same characters: "Blue Heaven" and "Putting on the Ritz" were the first two. The third "My Lucky Star," pokes fun at Hollywoods homophobia. A fan of Neil Simon, he says "I like writing funny, neurotic, intelligent, witty, and vain characters that you still like." Although he is a witty writer, he is known to his family and friends as reserved and definitely not the life of the party. Nevertheless, he finds humor in his observations and has a sense of the ridiculous that he employs in his writing. Keenan grew up in an Irish Catholic household with three other siblings including his twin brother. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
