Biography

Frazier grew up in Hudson, Ohio.[2] His father, David Frazier, was a chemist,[3] who worked for Sohio;[4][5] his mother, Peggy, was a teacher, as well as an amateur actor and director,[3] who performed in and directed plays in local Ohio theaters.[6] He graduated from Western Reserve Academy in 1969 and from Harvard University in 1973.[3]

Writing career

The New York Times critic James Gorman described Frazier's 1996 humor collection Coyote v. Acme (in the title piece, Wile E. Coyote is suing the manufacturer of various rocket-propelled devices) as the occasion for "irrepressible laughter in the reader." Gorman rates Frazier's first collection, 1986's Dating Your Mom, as "one of the best collections of humor ever published."[7]
