Mark Treitel(I)
- Writer
- Additional Crew
Mark Treitel gives new meaning to the word "multi-tasking" and can
switch gears flawlessly. Besides being a comedy writer, he has among
other things, prosecuted misdemeanors as a city attorney in the Los
Angeles area, parlayed his Tufts Biology degree to become a member of
the US Patent bar, as well as fastidiously collecting adverbs in his
spare time.
Mark hails from a small town in Long Island; Port Jefferson, New York, where he merged his love of television and comedy by writing his first play in elementary school, "The Eighth Grade Sails The Love Boat." At Tufts University, he was one of the original writers of Tufts' comedy newspaper, The Zamboni founded by Entertainment Weekly's Josh Wolk. After unsuccessfully winning Homecoming King, Mark declared martial law and proclaimed himself Spring Fling King.
Next, he used his legal and comedy background at New York City's Cardozo School of Law, co-writing the school's Law Revue show with Jeff Marx, acclaimed co-creator of Broadway's "Avenue Q." He was also the co-editor-in-chief of the school's newspaper, where he won one of the ABA's awards for Best Law School newspaper. Since graduating, he's used the powers of law to wipe out injustice and the occasional parking ticket.
Mark lives with his beautiful, funny and one-of-a-kind wife, Mindy, who is also a transplant New Yorker. She and Mark's family are ecstatic that Mark has been given this opportunity to finally fulfill all of his dreams, but she constantly reminds him he still has to do the laundry.
