Hello and welcome to the website of Nate Dern. I'm a Senior Writer at Funny Or Die and the former artistic director of the UCB Theatre NY. My writing has been published by the kind folks at places like the New Yorker, Vice, New York Magazine, Outside Magazine, McSweeney's, and CollegeHumor. A few recent updates:
