Dylan Brody has spent decades making people laugh at things that probably shouldn't be funny — which turns out to be most of what matters. A comedian, produced playwright, Hollywood screenwriter, solo performer, and writing coach, he built Active Voice Productions around a single conviction: that precision, honesty, and a well-placed joke do the same essential work. His writing has earned him a Nicholl Fellowship semi-finalist credit, a Stanley Drama Award, and endorsements from George Carlin and Robin Williams. His books range from comic fiction and family memoir to poker strategy — not because he lacks focus, but because the same mind runs through all of it. Laughs Last and Relatively Painless bring the sensibility of a lifelong storyteller to the particular comedy of family, grief, and survival. Texas Hold 'Em: Fundamentals to Final Tables brings that same clarity to the poker table. As a writing coach, he teaches what his books demonstrate: active verbs, earned emotion, and the discipline to say exactly what you mean and stop. He lives and works in Los Angeles.
