Dave Barry
David McAlister "Dave" Barry (born July 3, 1947) is a Pulitzer Prize winning American author and columnist, who wrote a nationally syndicated humor column for ''The Miami Herald'' from 1983 to 2005. He has also written numerous books of humor and parody, as well as comedic novels. ==Early life and education== Barry was born in Armonk, New York, where his father, David, was a Presbyterian minister. He was educated at Wampus Elementary School, Harold C. Crittenden Junior High School (both in Armonk), and Pleasantville High School where he was elected "Class Clown" in 1965. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Haverford College in 1969. As an alumnus of a Quaker-affiliated college, he avoided military service during the Vietnam War by registering as a religious conscientious objector.〔("The World According To Dave Barry" ), 1985, Eric Zorn, ''Chicago Tribune''〕 Notwithstanding his father's vocation, Dave decided "early on" that he was an atheist. He said, "The problem with writing about religion is that you run the risk of offending sincerely religious people, and then they come after you with machetes."〔
