Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons

A memoir of growing up in a dysfunctional Irish family by frequent late-night guest and Howard Stern Show veteran Greg Fitzsimmons, as told through a collection of disciplinary letters. PARENTS: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME Greg Fitzsimmons has made a lot of what appear to be bad decisions. Its what he was raised to do. Most parents would hide or destroy any evidence so clearly demonstrating their childs failures, butlucky for usGreg Fitzsimmonss family has preserved each mistake in its original envelope like a trophy in a case, lest he ever forget where he came from. Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons is Gregs life, told through this cavalcade of disciplinary letters, incident reports, and newspaper clippings that his parents received from teachers and school officials. Greg picks up where his parents left off with his own collection of letters received during college and throughout his successful career as a writer, producer, and stand-up comic. Revealing the larger story of how Gregs distinctly dysfunctional Irish-American family bred him to blindly challenge anyone, anytime, anywhere, over anything, Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons comes full circle to show that the Fitzsimmons torch has been passed on proudly to a new generation.
