Paul Lander Named Erma Bombeck Humor Writer of the Month

Humor Times writer Paul Lander makes good

The Humor Times’ own Paul Lander was named the “Erma Bombeck Humor Writer of the Month” for his Ripping the Headlines Today column on this website. Congratulations, Paul!

The piece on the University of Dayton’s Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop site reads:

Paul Lander is not sure which he is proudest of — winning the Nobel Peace Prize or sending Sudanese peace activist, Fatima Ahmed Ibrahim, to accept it on his behalf, bringing to light the plight of central Africa’s indigenous people. In his non-daydreaming hours, Paul has worked as a writer and/or producer for shows on ABC, NBC, Showtime, The Disney Channel, ABC Family, VH1, LOGO and Lifetime. In addition, he’s written standup material that’s been performed on “Leno,” “Letterman,” “Conan” and “Last Comic Standing.” His humor pieces have appeared in The New Yorker, Santa Fe Writers Project Journal, Humor Times, The Higgs Weldon and Hobo Pancake.
