Rich was born and grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, but after graduating with a degree in computer engineering, he decided to find the closest thing to running away to join the circus and moved to Hollywood. While in Los Angeles, he wrote for numerous television series with his writing partner Arnold Rudnick including, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Star Trek: Voyager, and The New Addams Family for which they won a Leo Award for Best Writing for Comedy or Variety. Once his son was born, he moved back to his hometown and recently he has been focusing his efforts on novels and short stories for his fiction podcast, Bedtime Stories for Insomniacs. He is a fan of Legos and Doctor Who, and now that there is a Doctor Who Lego set, his life is complete.
