Letter from Laura -- LauraLippman.com
Description
"I live in bucolic Walnut, Iowa with my wife of 27 years and an odd kid or two. My eclectic career includes stints as a trainee Benedictine monk, a stand-up comedian, a radio host, a T.V. critic, and a concert narrator. In September 2002 I ended a twenty-five year stint in radio and turned my attention to writing fiction full-time. I have since written for newspapers, radio, television, advertising, symphony orchestras and the stage and have won awards for essays and journalism. I write for eight hours a day, everyday, unless the dog is sick or tornadoes threaten."
Once upon a time in the thriving metropolis of Omaha, Nebraska, small children and goofy teenagers crouched by their radio sets in hopes of hearing the booming tones of Otis XII emanating from the speakers. Otis enjoyed a 25-year career in radio -- but not just spinning vinyl and announcing the current time! Over the years, Otis has kept the fine art of radio theatre alive by recording short comedy sketches for weekly broadcast. He spent over a decade at Z-92 and later worked at KFAB, CD105.9 and KKAR before being voted into the Nebraska Radio Personalities Hall of Fame.
In the early '70s, Otis was part of the Omaha-based Ogden Edsl (sometimes credited as the Ogden Edsl Wahalia Blues Ensemble Mondo Bizarrio Band) who recorded deliciously tasteless novelty numbers like "Kinko the Clown" and "Dead Puppies" of Dr. Demento fame.
