John Buffalo Mailer is an actor, playwright, producer, and journalist. He founded Back House Productions in New York City with
three other Wesleyan grads in October of 2000. Within one year Back House
became the resident theater company of The Drama Bookshop’s Arthur Seelan
Theater, and has developed, among many plays, the recent TONY winner for
Best Musical, ''In the Heights''. In 2001, John’s first play, ''Hello Herman'', had its
New York Premiere at the Grove Street Playhouse and recently had its West
Coast Premiere at the Edgemar Center for the Arts in Los Angeles with John
in the lead role. It was developed into a feature film staring Norman Reedus in 2013. His second play,
''Crazy Eyes'', had its world premiere in Athens, Greece in 2005, and the US Premiere
in Provincetown later the same year. In 2003, John took the position of
Executive Editor for ''High Times'' magazine. In addition to the “High Times
Activist’s Guide to the RNC,” he also interviewed his father, [[Norman Mailer]],
for ''New York Magazine'', on the possible dangers and benefits of the protest.
That interview was later included in a book of discussions between father
and son on topics ranging from protest to poker and everything in between,
titled ''The Big Empty''. In 2008, in partnership
with his brother, Michael Mailer, he produced the documentary adaptation
of Naomi Wolf’s best selling book, ''The End of America''. John has been published
in ''Playboy'', ''New York Magazine'', ''Provincetown Arts'', ''Lid Magazine'', ''Stop Smiling'', ''Corriere della Sera'', ''The Mailer Review'', ''ESPN Books'', and ''The American Conservative''. He can be seen in ''Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps''.
