Who is Jonathan Kaplan?

Jonathan Robert Kaplan is a writer for the lonelygirl15 video series. Sharing a birthday with both Ed McMahon and Michelangelo, Jonathan was raised amidst the farmlands of Northern Illinois. After growing up watching Bewitched (in re-runs) and noticing how Darren always had to shave, put on a suit, go into an office, and suck up to Mr. Tate, Jonathan decided that he never wanted to grow up and take part in what grown-ups called "work." As such, he traded a budding career as a corn detasseler in his hometown of De Kalb for a much more lucrative and slightly more interesting career as a TV writer out in Hollywood, CA. Since then, he's written for NYPD Blue, JAG and a number of other shows. He got involved with lonelygirl15 after his friend and collegue Mary Feuer asked him to join the show's writing staff.

Interestingly, Jonathan won a "stupid human tricks" contest during David Letterman Week at the University of Iowa by cracking his jaw to the tune of Bonanza. He beat a guy who put dental floss up his nose and pulled it out his mouth.
