Eric Carpenter hails from the utopia that is known as Trenton, New Jersey. Actually, not Trenton itself, but nearby. Eric has acted on stage, performed stand-up comedy, and now has written his book, "Stan the Man." He has also written for the website What Exit NJ? and hosted an internet radio show on Hamilton Radio called the Robbinsville Train Wreck. When he is not trying to break out of the fringe areas of show business, he lives with his loving and patient wife who has not tried to kill him yet. His goals are to continue writing and to see that his neighbor on his left side finally cuts down his bushes that are overgrowing.
