Michael Price is an Emmy Award winning writer and producer. He's best known for his work on the Simpsons having joined the team in 2002 where he is also a co-executive producer. Following his success on The Simpsons, Michael was tapped for the wildly popular Lego Star Wars animated TV Series. Episodes include The Yoda Chronicles, The Empire Strikes Out and Droid Tales. Striking a chord with fans young and old, Michael has proven he's one of the greatest comedic writers of our time. In his latest project, Michael partnered with comedic mainstay Bill Burr.
