Meet Author/Producer Marshall Karp
Before collaborating with best selling author James
Patterson, Marshall Karp was in advertising, where the punishment for creating
award-winning TV campaigns is to put the writer in charge of an entire
department and tell him to stop writing ads. Trapped in a corner office, Karp
wrote a play, "Squabbles," which attracted the attention of network
executives. He created "Everything's Relative," a CBS comedy starring
Jason Alexander, moved to LA to become writer/producer for the NBC hit,
"Amen," then served as writer/co-executive producer for ABC's
"Baby Talk" and several other long forgotten TV series. A feature
film, "Just Looking," directed by Jason Alexander, was released in
2000.
Karp returned to NY, and in 2006 he fulfilled a long-time fantasy by
killing many of the people he worked with in Hollywood. His first novel,
"The Rabbit Factory," set in a Disneyesque studio, introduces LAPD
Detectives Mike Lomax and Terry Biggs. Three more Lomax and Biggs mysteries
followed ("Bloodthirsty," "Flipping Out," and "Cut,
Paste, Kill"). In 2011 he coauthored the #1 NY Times bestseller "Kill
Me If You Can" with James Patterson. A second collaboration, "NYPD
Red," followed in 2012. "NYPD Red 2" was released in March
2014. In 2002 Karp joined the Board of Advisors of Vitamin Angels and is one of
the architects of Operation 20/20, whose goal is to prevent blindness and dramatically
reduce mortality rates among the 200 million children around the world who
suffer from Vitamin A deficiency.
