Dave Astor

Dave Astor has written the award-winning “Montclairvoyant” humor column for The Montclair Times since 2003 and book pieces for The Huffington Post since 2011.

Between 1983 and 2008, Astor covered columnists, cartoonists, and syndicates for Editor & Publisher magazine. In 2012, Xenos Press published his memoir Comic (and Column) Confessional.

Before joining E&P, Astor was editor-in-chief of the Rutgers Daily Targum and a reporter for two New Jersey newspapers: the Daily Register in Shrewsbury and the Herald News in Passaic. He has a B.A. in English from Rutgers College and a master’s degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism.

Dave is NOT related to the wealthy Astors, as the amount of money in his bank account proves.
