How You Probably Know Him:
Steve Martin has appeared in a number of hilarious movies like The Jerk, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Father of the Bride, Parenthood, Bowfinger, Roxeanne.... He's also been the host for the Oscars and frequently appears on SNL. More recently, he's gotten a lot of acclaim for his work as a writer.

Why Did I Choose Him?
I guess after a few years of being in the back of fame, Martin has really come back with the one-two punch of a great job hosting the Oscars and the movie Bringing Down the House. The main contributing factor for my decision in choosing him was his novella Shopgirl, which I recently completed. It's a really well written story along with Pure Drivel, it shows that he's a talented writer.

What's Next?
He is adapting Shopgirl into a movie.
