My Take
Jim Rash strikes me as a rare double threat. He had me laughing as the gloriously unhinged Dean Pelton on Community, then turned around and won the 2012 Academy Award for Adapted Screenplay. That swing, from broad sitcom comedy to the pinnacle of prestige writing, is almost unheard of. A Charlotte native and UNC Chapel Hill graduate, he wears the hats of actor, screenwriter and producer with disarming ease. Born in 1971, he belongs to that tiny club able to wield humour and literary craft with the same hand. I have a soft spot for people who win through sheer versatility, and he is exhibit A.
