Michael Latshaw grew up in Ohio as the son of celebrated puppeteer George Latshaw. He credits his father’s unusual occupation as a catalyst for his somewhat skewed sense of humor. A former actor, Latshaw now works in marketing and freelances as a writer for corporate entertainment projects. “I knew my acting career was over when I was hired as the singing voice of George Bush in a Japanese commercial,” Latshaw admits. “That was pretty much the beginning of the end.”

Latshaw is an award-winning playwright, whose plays The Bride Hesitates, Quicker’s Crackers, Tongue in Chic, The Christmas List and Toupee, or Not to Pay? have been performed at various theaters around the country. 

In 2008, Latshaw created the Wizard of Wit website (www.wizardofwit.com) to showcase his growing collection of short humorous videos of cats, dogs, birds and other assorted creatures. The videos also gained enough popularity on YouTube that Michael was eventually made a Youtube Partner. (YouTube channel: ScoobyHubby)
