Judd Apatow will be on the PBS NEWSHOUR tonight - Monday, October 25, 2010 to discuss his latest project “I Found This Funny” in an interview with Jeffrey Brown.
The 42-year-old writer, director and producer of megahits is the force behind films including "The 40 Year-Old Virgin" and "Knocked Up" that combined have earned $1.5 billion dollars in recent years.
Apatow's latest pursuit is a book called "I Found This Funny," a collection of his favorite works by writers from past literary masters F. Scott Fitzgerald and Flannery O'Connor to contemporary humorists David Sedaris and Steve Martin.
The proceeds benefit a non-profit writing and tutoring program called 826 National.
Online at Art Beat is an extended interview in which Apatow describes his childhood, which would become the basis for his later work, especially the TV series, "Freaks and Geeks."
