Email Michael Deeds

Idaho Statesman columnist Michael Deeds was born in North Platte, Neb. The nation's No. 1 song that day was Simon & Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson.” This wouldn’t be bad, except that everyone else’s birth date song is cooler. His wife’s? The Knack’s “My Sharona.” His son's? Leona Lewis’ “Bleeding Love.” (Come to think of it, Lil’ Deeds got hosed, too.) Not one to sulk, Michael stays busy as the Statesman’s entertainment editor. In addition, he co-hosts "The Other Studio" Sundays on 94.9 FM "The River" and appears Thursdays on Channel 6 News. When readers disagree with Deeds’ opinions, he prefers to settle disputes on the ping-pong table.
