About the author

Matthew J. Goldberg is a uniquely dynamic writer and speaker noted for his irreverent, offbeat sense of humor. He is the author of the unintended cult classics, So So Wisdom and Mixed Emotions, as well as the just released Wordapodia, Volume One: An Encyclopedia of Real Fake Words. All That Twitters Is Not Goldberg is a compendium of Matt’s The Tip of the Goldberg humor columns—written as a monthly column for a writers’ e-zine. An accomplished, award-winning public speaker, Matt finds truthful humor in just about everything, including his late foray into fatherhood and trying to raise the perfect American Chinese Jewish baby, his addiction to sports (and the singular frustration of being a Philadelphia sports fan) and the hypocrisy of so many in the business world, in political life and within our media. Although real life provides plenty of material, he is not immune to flights of fancy that find him selling ice cream to Eskimos, consulting imaginary psychologists and communing with the very first poet—a Neanderthal wordsmith named Sheldon “Big Stones” Firestein. Matt resides in Cherry Hill, NJ with his wife Ruby, and son, Baby Ben—a beautiful boy who always makes the author smile and laugh with his sheer joy, kindness and playfulness. He endeavors to share his good humor with people, businesses, libraries and other institutions alike.
