Tony Slattery
A decade ago I wrote a book about comedians and mental health. Except that when Beyond A Joke* was published society had not really started talking that much publicly about mental health, so instead the focus was on "the dark side" of comedy. Same shit, different name. Though no mention of Tony Slattery.
