Tucker Max
Tucker Tibor Max (born 1975 in Atlanta, Georgia) is a fratire-style author who is writing a sitcom pilot script for Comedy Central.[1][2] Max grew up in Lexington, Kentucky, and received a bachelor's degree in Law, Letters, and Society from University of Chicago and a J.D. from Duke University School of Law. [3] At Duke, he posted an online "date application" that led to a June 2003 appearance in "Sex2K", an episode of MTV's True Life[4]. In 2003, a judge ordered Max to remove from his site a story about an ex-girlfriend who filed an invasion-of-privacy lawsuit,[5] but the case eventually was dismissed.[6] In 2006, radio hosts Opie and Anthony cast doubt on the truthfulness of his stories and compared Max to James Frey.[7]. Max's Assholes Finish First is due in 2008 from Simon Spotlight.
