In Headless, Weissman turns his daredevil wit and fearless storytelling gifts on subjects ranging from Hitler’s secret life as a skier to the philosophical musings of identical twin porn stars to the travails of the world’s most sitcom-defying family.

A painter and professor at Art Center College of Design and Otis College of the Arts, Weissman lives in Los Angeles.
