Todd Lamb (born March 1976) is an American writer and director based out of New York City. He has written under the moniker Rock Ninja, as well as his birth name. He created the popular Rock Ninja! concert reviews that recurred in The ''SF Weekly''. This editorial series featured a ninja who would attend concerts and review them in a kung-fu voice. The final Rock Ninja! article was a meeting backstage with the Beastie Boys, entitled "Pawns in The Sun", the series ran for two years to much acclaim but stopped in late 2004. His comedy and pranks have been featured in ''Stop Smiling'' Magazine, Larry Flynt's ''Big Brother Skateboarding'' Magazine, Radar Magazine, SF Weekly (with those articles later syndicated in sister newspaper ''The Riverfront Times''), ''The Warlock'' zine, New York's Wooooo Magazine. ==Books and Printed Materials== A book titled Yo, Check The Perm! was released in September 2007. Lamb gathered 15 people in the New York area and gave them perms in an effort to make their lives more dangerous. This book contains photography of each person that received the hairdo and strange case studies of each incident. This book was featured in the 2007 issue of Nylon Magazine. Also a series of pocketsized books by Lamb, entitled The Big Book of Wisdom, features the learnings that Lamb gathered, collected in multiple travel size versions in the volumes: romance, office, and art. Swedish artist and illustrator Johan Malmström drew illustrations that correspond with Lamb's writings. The series was created to be used in society, and was designed to be taken with when leaving the house. Lamb was the creator of the zine titled "Brown Trip", which received praise from Juxtapoz Art & Culture Magazine and was featured in a 2007 issue. It was a small printed booklet with hand penned art. Brown Trip was designed to test whether the reader was a hippie. Only 100 copies were created. In 2008 Lamb began posting humorous notes around NYC asking New Yorkers to do tedious things with a character named "Chris". Each note is signed by "Chris" and asks people for rides to malls, advice on life, and help with pets.〔http://www.funnyordie.com/slideshows/de0d154802/notes-from-chris-pranking-new-yorkers-one-fake-sign-at-a-time〕 The ongoing project has been titled Notes From Chris. The notes have become popular around New York City and across the internet, with imitators attempting to re-create and imitate the signs as far away as Australia. 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「Todd Lamb (writer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
