Biographie de l'auteur

Matt Keenan is a humor columnist whose writings draw from the most vital of all subjects: family. His columns have appeared in the Kansas City Star for the last seven years. His articles will have parents laughing in agreement at his witty assessments of everything from carpool lines to First Communion. Underneath the humor in his articles is a poignant look at the modern American family living in the heart of the Midwest, Kansas City. Some readers will share Matt?s remembrances of his own childhood?the old wood paneled Chrysler station wagon and the golden days of Catholic school education. Matt?s articles will make you laugh out loud ? and keep you smiling throughout the day. Matt and his family live in Leawood, Kansas, but they spend most of their time in the car running a cab service for their four teenage children.
