Patton Oswalt

Patton Oswalt is an Emmy and Grammy-winning comedian, actor and writer whose work includes stand-up specials, the voice of Remy in Ratatouille, and roles in Young Adult, The Goldbergs and Veep. He is the author of Silver Screen Fiend and Zombie Spaceship Wasteland.

After the sudden death of his wife, the writer Michelle McNamara, in 2016, he completed and published her book I'll Be Gone in the Dark and spoke with unusual candor about grief, single parenting and returning to comedy, work that made him an unexpected public voice on mourning.
