Ben McKenzie
12 September 1978
Ben McKenzie is the only six-time Teen Choice Award nominee to have written a New York Times bestselling book on economics. ***Easy Money***, penned alongside journalist Jacob Silverman, chronicles his two-year investigation into the murky world of crypto and fraud. In addition to writing, Ben is an actor who has starred in three TV shows (*Gotham*, *Southland*, and *The OC*), has appeared in numerous films (*Junebug*, *Line of Duty*, *The Torture Report*, and others), and has even trod the boards of Broadway (the Tony-nominated *Grand Horizons*). He has written and directed multiple episodes of television. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and three kids, all of whom are tired of him talking about cryptocurrency.
