Davy Rothbart (born April 11, 1975) is a bestselling author, Emmy Award-winning filmmaker, contributor to ''This American Life'', and the editor/publisher of ''Found Magazine''. ==Found Magazine== Davy Rothbart's magazine ''Found'' is dedicated to discarded notes, letters, flyers, photos, lists, and drawings found and sent in by readers. The magazine spawned a best-selling book, ''Found: The Best Lost, Tossed, and Forgotten Items from Around the World'', published in April 2004. A second collection was published in May 2006, a third in May 2009. The magazine is published annually and co-edited by Rothbart's friend Sarah Locke. Rothbart, a former Chicago Bulls ticket scalper, often tours the country to share finds and invite others to share their finds with him. His brother, musician Peter Rothbart, often accompanies him on these tours. In 2004, as he was on a nationwide tour to promote the Found book, he appeared twice on the television program the Late Show with David Letterman on CBS. He has since been featured on 20/20, msnbc, and Last Call with Carson Daly, among other national TV and radio shows, and been profiled in ''The New Yorker'' and ''The New York Times''. Rothbart has toured the U.S. relentlessly with his live spoken-word show, reading from Found Magazine and his own books of stories and essays, appearing in all 50 states and over 200 cities; ''The Los Angeles Times'' calls him "an utterly engaging performer." He has toured and shared stages with Ira Glass and Sarah Vowell of This American Life, David Sedaris, Jon Stewart of The Daily Show, Frank Warren of PostSecret, Dave Eggers, Zooey Deschanel, Reggie Watts, John Oliver, Zack Galifianakis, Patton Oswalt, Tig Notaro, and many others, as well as musical acts OK Go, The Watson Twins, Mates of State, Of Montreal, Poem Adept, Jon Langford, and Devon Sproule. In recent years, he has toured most frequently with Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher of the Found Footage Festival, and sword swallower Brett Loudermilk, with whom he completed a 25-city European tour in the fall of 2008, as well as more recent U.S. tours. Rothbart also speaks frequently at colleges and universities, including Harvard, Yale, Brown, Reed College, Oberlin, University of Illinois, University of Wisconsin, and UCLA, and delivered a Graduation address at the University of Michigan, his alma mater, on May 2, 2014. In the fall of 2014, ''Found The Musical'' opened off-Broadway at David Mamet and William H. Macy's Atlantic Theater Company in New York City for a 12-week run. The play, written by Lee Overtree and Hunter Bell, with songs by Eli Bolin and additional materials by the Story Pirates, starred Broadway vet Nick Blaemire as Davy, with Betsy Morgan, Barrett Wilbert Weed, ''Community's'' Danny Pudi, and Daniel Everidge, and received overwhelmingly positive reviews, including a "Critic's Pick" from Christopher Isherwood of ''The New York Times''. A new production is planned for 2015, according to producers Victoria Lang, Eva Price, and Jamie Salka. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Davy Rothbart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
