Matthew Selman (born September 9, 1971) is an Americanwriter and producer.

Early life[edit]

Selman grew up in Massachusetts. He graduated from Beaver Country Day School in 1989. He studied history at the University of Pennsylvania and served as Editor-in-Chief for 34th Street Magazine.^{[1][2][3][4][5]}

Career[edit]

After considering a career in journalism, he decided to try to become a television writer. After two years of failed spec scripts he was eventually hired to write an episode of Seinfeld in 1996.

The Simpsons[edit]

In 1997, Selman joined the writing staff of The Simpsons, where he has remained, rising to the position of executive producer.^[6] He has written or co-written 28 episodes of the show, including 'Natural Born Kissers' which the show's creator Matt Groening listed as his eighth favorite episode in 2000.,^[7] 'Behind the Laughter', 'Trilogy of Error', 'Sky Police' and 'The Food Wife'. He also co-wrote the 2007 film adaptation of the show, as well as co-writing the video games The Simpsons: Road Rage, The Simpsons Hit and Run and The Simpsons Game.

Selman has won six Primetime Emmy Awards for his work on the show, sharing them with the other producers.^[8] Selman received an Annie Award in 1999 for writing 'Simpsons Bible Stories'.^[9] He also won a Writers Guild of America Award in 2004 for writing the episode 'The Dad Who Knew Too Little'.^[10] In the episode, Homer's e-mail was said to be chunkylover53@aol.com. Selman registered the e-mail and received thousands of messages after the episode aired.^[11] He responded to some of them in the character of Homer, but gave up when he forgot the password.^[12]

Of his writing of The Simpsons he said: 'The hardest thing is we have to try and make each episode as good as everything that's come before it. We have a legacy of greatness, and you don't want to be the person that ruins The Simpsons.'^[13]

Selman formerly wrote for Time.com's Techland 'Nerd World' blog alongside Lev Grossman,^[4] and is also the creator and writer of the Icebox.com webtoon 'Superhero Roommate.'^[14] Selman also has written jokes for many animated movies.
