Abstract

Writer, columnist, humorist and former Chicago reporter Dave Jaffe has written for online, print, television and radio. Creativity, cleverness and wit were traits that kept Dave in detention for most of the eighth grade, but as an adult, those skills led to multiple award-winning columns and commentary, numerous articles and essays, and even sketches for Bozo the Clown. Dave's blog, which explores life with a terrier - received the 2018 and 2017 National Society of Newspaper Columnists award for humor blogs. His work has twice been honored with Peter A. Lisagor awards by the Chicago Headline Club and by the Parenting Publications of America.
