Pat Kilbane

Pat Kilbane was bitten by the roleplaying bug in 1979 with the Holmes D&D Basic Set and has been playing ever since. He has a penchant for the science behind RPG rule mechanics (which led him to create the web series RPG Science) and is the director of The Dreams in Gary’s Basement, a documentary film about Gary Gygax and the creation of Dungeons & Dragons.

Beginning his career as an actor, Pat spent three years as a series regular on Fox’s Mad TV. He also played the Anti-Kramer in the Seinfeld episode “The Bizarro Jerry” and guest starred in films such as Evolution, Semi-Pro and Day of the Dead.

Now a writer/director, Pat penned the zombie book The Brain Eater’s Bible (St. Martin’s Press), wrote and directed the Discovery Networks series Dark Secrets and spent two years under contract with Dreamworks developing science-fiction concepts for television.
