Boobela and Worm

Joe Friedman has had a fascinating and varied life. Born in Chicago to profoundly deaf parents, he sold his first play at the age of 13. He moved to London after university where he taught Psychology and Philosophy in the field of adult education, before training as a psychoanalytic psycho- therapist. For the past decade, he has concentrated on his writing. He has scripted an autobiographical work which was performed with deaf actors, and has also written several television scripts (not yet produced), a film script, and a TV script. In his spare time, Joe writes and performs stand-up comedy. He lives in London W10 with his wife and daughter. Boobela and Worm is his first book for children.
