My name is Porter Mason. I live in Los Angeles, California. I’m doing my part to gentrify it. Oh, and I’m half-Hungarian.
I’ve been drawing cartoons since the age of five and publishing them since the age of fifteen.
I do a comic strip called Bassist Wanted for weekly newspapers. It’s about music stuff.
I did a comic strip, Johnny the Mediocre Human, while I was at Duke University, and developed another comic strip called Back Bay with Universal Press Syndicate.
I was the founder of T.J. Monkey’s, a humor website that provided daily essays from 2001 through 2004. I also wrote little bits for magazines like FHM and Time Out New York.
I wrote a screenplay with a friend about the 2004 election. If you wanna read it and then make it, let me know.
As if this all wasn’t enough, I’ve been performing improvisational comedy since 1996. I perform and teach comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York City. I perform on Tuesday nights with “The Scam”, a UCBT house team.
I’m currently efforting to write for television sitcoms and such. Wanna read my spec scripts and pilot and hire me for your writing staff? You just have to contact me.
