Matthew Quick is the mastermind behind the novel, The Silver Linings Playbook, recently adapted into the David O. Russell film starring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. The journey in writing Silver Linings was a long one for the author. “I knew there was something inside of me that had to come out,” Quick told Uinterview exclusively, “and the best part of me was dying, I knew that I needed to make art and that’s what I did.” Indeed! Since its release, Silver Linings has been nominated for eight Academy Awards.
Quick, 40, got his degree in English literature at La Salle University. Soon after, he earned his MFA from Goddard College and began his career as a high school English teacher in New Jersey, but quit to pursue his career as an author. Deciding to move into his in-laws’ basement, he began to write Silver Linings, which was published in 2008. Other works by Quick include Sorta Like A Rockstar in 2010 and Boy21, published in 2012.
Quick was stunned to see his characters come to life on the big screen. “I think Bradley Cooper did a fantastic job,” he told Uinterview. “I think his interpretation was just amazing. Jennifer Lawrence was pretty close to what I envisioned when I was writing. She just explodes on the screen the whole time.”
