Adam Mansbach is a novelist, screenwriter, cultural critic and humorist. He is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Go the Fuck to Sleep, which has been translated into forty languages, named Time Magazine's 2011 "Thing of the Year," and sold over three million copies worldwide. The two sequels, You Have to Fucking Eat and Fuck, Now There Are Two of You are also New York Times bestsellers. The audiobooks, narrated by Samuel L. Jackson, Bryan Cranston, and Larry David, are pretty fucking good as well.

Mansbach's novels include Rage is Back, The End of the Jews (winner of the California Book Award), and Angry Black White Boy, which is taught at over a hundred schools and was adapted into a prize-winning stage play in 2008. His middle grades series, Jake the Fake Keeps it Real (co-written with Craig Robinson), was a Scholastic Book Club Main Selection and winner of the 2021 Grand Canyon Readers Award. With Dave Barry and Alan Zweibel, Mansbach wrote For This We Left Egypt, a finalist for the Thurber Award for American Humor, and the bestselling A Field Guide to the Jewish People.

Mansbach's debut screenplay, for the 2016 Netflix Original BARRY, was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award and an NAACP Image Award. He recently adapted DL Hughley’s book How Not to Get Shot (and Other Advice From White People) for Comedy Central, and his next feature film is SUPER HIGH, a stoner superhero comedy starring Andy Samberg, Craig Robinson and Common that is forthcoming from New Line.
