Larry Siegel is a writer who has worked in television, stage, magazines, records, and books. He has received three Emmys and one Writers Guild award along with a dozen Emmy and Guild nominations. He was also one of ''Mad'' Magazine's primary writers for almost 33 years. ==Early life== Siegel was born in New York City in 1925. His first published work was a poem, ''Oh Dear What Can Sinatra Be?'', which tweaked both the singer and his bobbysoxer fans, and ran in Earl Wilson's syndicated newspaper column in 1943. The verse read in part: :A quivering lip :Blaring lovesick rhyme, :Her insides flip in double time. :A slender frame with sagging knees :Yet garnering fame with uncanny ease :The stricken dame pants the breeze. :Eyes of blue, two hands alike :Stretching forth true :Lovingly to strike :Close to you? No, his mike.〔https://books.google.com/books?id=9SxgBgAAQBAJ&pg=PT72&lpg=PT72&dq=%22Oh+Dear+What+Can+Sinatra+Be?%22&source=bl&ots=6aVAKyuVIx&sig=uFemBiXDOpMlc7jWsKKzAl9uNZw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CBkQ6AEwAWoVChMItKCO2oebyQIVRW4-Ch3ebgoU#v=onepage&q=%22Oh%20Dear%20What%20Can%20Sinatra%20Be%3F%22&f=false〕 Siegel was drafted into the army soon after his contribution to Wilson's column. In early 1944, after concluding infantry basic training in Georgia, he volunteered for additional stateside training with the 10th Mountain Division. The 10th landed in Naples, Italy for battle in January 1945. Siegel received a Combat Infantry Badge and a Good Conduct ribbon. After the war ended, Siegel enrolled at the University of Illinois on the GI bill. He wrote for the school humor magazine, ''Shaft'', for two years. He became editor of the publication when his predecessor, Hugh Hefner, graduated. While at college, Siegel had stories published in ''Fantasy and Science Fiction'' and ''American Legion Magazine''. Siegel graduated and returned to his family in New York in 1950. In 1955 Siegel met his wife, Helen Hartman, an aide in the office of United Nations Secretary-General, Dag Hammarskjold. 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「Larry Siegel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
