S. J. VARENGO

According to the bio on his website: "Scott James (S.J.) Varengo was born in 1960, fifty years to the day after the death of Mark Twain, in a city called New York. Two years later he formed a band called The Beatles [citation needed].

He returned to New York City to attend Fordham University (having been told it was a basketball powerhouse) before transferring to the State University of New York at Potsdam (having been told it was located in the tropics), from which he earned a bachelor’s degree in Art History, which was totally worth it because of how many art questions he gets right when watching Jeopardy.
