DICK VAN DYKE About the Author ADAM NEDEFF grew up in Vienna, West Virginia, and spent his childhood infinitely more interested in late night comedy & game shows than afternoon cartoons. As a teenager, he began collecting game show memorabilia as a hobby, frantically gathering 8x10 glossies of hosts, board game adaptations, videos and DVDs of classic game shows. He was even commissioned to produce a game show for Marshall University at the State Fair of West Virginia. He majored in radio & television at Marshall and by the time he graduated, he had already served as announcer for two locally-produced game shows. He spent a few years toiling as a disc jockey before moving to Los Angeles to see if he could make a career out of his childhood obsessions. He has worked as a freelance comedy writer and appeared as a contestant on three game shows: Catch-21, Trivial Pursuit: America Plays, and Who's Still Standing? He's experienced the world of game shows from the other side of the camera as well, having worked briefly behind-the-scenes for Wheel of Fortune and The Price is Right. With a team of kindred spirits, he helped started a small business, Home Game Enterpriz
