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''. | |||
