A researcher and collector of comedy, music, and movies, Dale has written books on such topics as KISS, MASH, "End of the World" movies, and biographies about Mel Brooks, John Waters, and Quentin Tarantino. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky, with his wife, daughter, and too many videos, books, movie posters, and pets.
