Dave Barry, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of more than 30 books and syndicated columnist is a local hero. Voted Class Clown by the Pleasantville High School class of 1965, he is donating his time on behalf of his alma mater by speaking at their Barnes & Noble Bookfair. Each time a supporter mentions the bookfair at the Barnes & Noble City Center check-out on April 6, a percentage of the sale will be donated by Barnes & Noble to Pleasantville High School.
Barry’s new book I’ll Mature When I’m Dead: Amazing Tales of Adulthood is one of the funniest, warmest, most pitch-perfect books ever on that mystifying territory we call "adulthood."
Barry has had the most successful and prolific publishing career of any working newspaper columnist, and his humor never seems to go out of style. Yes, Barry is juvenile at times -- but he has achieved the kind of success that can only come from combining a juvenile mind with intelligence, timing, and a keen eye for the absurd. Favorite Barry targets include government inanity, dogs, guys, the Internet, and other oddities of life.
