Ep. 227 Dave Barry, "Class Clown"

Dave Barry's memoir is called "Class Clown." It is at least his 46th book. On the front of his book, he makes an important declaration: "How I went 77 years without growing up." For 30 years, Dave Barry wrote a weekly humor column published in newspapers, mostly on the weekends. He retired that column in 2005 but has kept writing. On the back flap of his memoir, the bio says he has more best sellers than you can count on two hands. Barry won the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for commentary. He lives in Miami.
