Summary Profile

For 17 years, Mike Reiss brought North America’s most popular cartoon family to life as a writer on The Simpsons, for which he won four Emmys. 

Reiss is a natural story-teller.  In addition to the TV series, he co-wrote the Simpsons feature film and several other movies including Ice Age 1 and 2.  He is also an award-winning mystery writer and best-selling children’s book author.  

Reiss keeps audiences in stitiches with his irreverent presentations about the Simpsons, the TV business, Jewish humour, children’s books and gay cartoons.   

Even audiences that don’t like the Simpsons love his presentations – he has brought down the house at more than 120 institutions on four continents and will be the highlight of your next event!
