Bob Odenkirk - A Load of Hooey

As an actor, Bob has had memorable roles as the agent Stevie Grant on The Larry Sanders Show , the character of Saul Goodman on AMC’s Breaking Bad , as well as in Alexander Payne’s Oscar-nominated film Nebraska . He will reprise his Breaking Bad role in Better Call Saul , a new spin-off series on AMC.

Bob’s comedy scripts and short essays have appeared in the New Yorker, VICE, Filter , and elsewhere.

I’d like to thank Mike Sacks for coaxing me on, Dave Eggers for making it come to life, Andrew Leland and Dan McKinley for making it look sharp, and Sharon Alagna for taking my author photo. Miss Sally Pemberton’s introduction was graciously provided by Megan Amram. Cover and interior illustrations are by Tony Millionaire. Proud Gay Grampa comic was illustrated by Scott C. “Didn’t Work for Me,” “Portrait of the Artist,” “A Vision of the Future,” and “Where I Got These Abs” originally appeared in the New Yorker (or at newyorker.com) in slightly different form. Lastly, thanks to the Directors and Members of the LilyGuild NY Local 214, without whose support this work would not have been possible.
