Larry Karaszewski, American director, producer, and screenwriter

Scott Alexander (born June 16, 1963) and Larry Karaszewski (; born November 20, 1961) are an American screenwriting team. They are best known for writing postmodern biopics with larger-than-life characters. They coined the term "anti-biopic" to describe the genre they invented: Movies about people who don't deserve one. They are uninterested in the traditional "great man" story, focusing instead on obscure strivers in American pop culture.

They met at the University of Southern California where they were freshman roommates; they graduated from the School of Cinematic Arts in 1985.
