He has published two books of his gag cartoons What Would Satan Do? ("Hell-arious." — Entertainment Weekly) and Because I'm the Child Here and I Said So and has contributed to numerous other collections. Previous careers include voice actor, advertising copywriter and — no joke — rocket scientist.

Rich Prezioso is half of the award-winning duo, Small Potatoes, “one of the most polished, inventive and entertaining shows” on the national folk music circuit (— Dirty Linen Magazine). He has played blues, country, folk, and rock in no particular order as a solo and in both acoustic and electric bands.  He studied classical guitar and composition, and worked for five years as a jingle writer in Chicago, writing music for Cap'n Crunch Cereal, Gatorade, and Domino's Pizza,  among others. He has gained a reputation as a songwriter and as a "guitar whiz" for his multi-styled approach to the instrument (a label he says he'll only accept when the endorsements start rolling in).
