He was also very close with Conan O'Brien while at Harvard. Prior to joining ''The Simpsons'', he had a brief stint with ''Saturday Night Live''. He described his experiences on a DVD commentary as "a very unhappy year". After leaving ''The Simpsons'' He is the third most prolific writer for ''The Simpsons''; his 25 episodes place him after John Swartzwelder, who wrote 59 episodes, and Tim Long, who wrote 26. Vitti has also used the pseudonym Penny Wise. Vitti used the pseudonym for episodes "Another Simpsons Clip Show" and "The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" because he did not want to be credited for writing a clip show as expressed on ''Simpsons'' DVD commentaries (though his name was credited for writing the first Simpsons clip show "So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show"). On the season four ''Simpsons'' episode "The Front," Jon Vitti is caricatured as a Harvard graduate who gets fired from I&S Studios for penning mediocre episodes and gets hit on the head with a name plate by his boss, Roger Meyers. 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「Jon Vitti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
