Gerard McLean is a humor essayist disguised as a writer. He has written several essay collections, some technical manuals, way more tweets than is healthy and more than his fair share of letters. While much of his work is considered by many to be humorous, he is not above writing some very sobering stuff, like his "100 Letters to Hillary about health care in America."
As of the publication of his fourth book, "A Face for Radio and a Voice for Twitter," he is confirmed alive.
