Bret Easton Ellis MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Bret Easton Ellis? Bret Easton Ellis is an ENTP personality type in MBTI, 3w4 - sx/sp - in Enneagram, SCUEI in Big 5, LIE in Socionics.
Whenever you watch interviews with him you can tell he's definitely on the Si-Ne axis. He always takes something from memory and makes something new out of it. Even American Psycho was somewhat biased off of his own life then he turned it into a book that criticizes Yuppie culture with wild Ne fantasies. I can see why people think he's a Se user since he's realistic and grounded but he also has an undeniable high creativity that I don't think most Ni infs would have. I believe that most authors are usually xNxPs it's the type of job that Ne would excel at though I am stereotyping a bit there.
Biography
Bret Easton Ellis (born March 7, 1964) is an American author, screenwriter, and short story writer. His works have been translated into 27 languages. Ellis was first regarded as one of the so-called literary Brat Pack, which also included Tama Janowitz and Jay McInerney. He is a self-proclaimed satirist whose trademark technique, as a writer, is the expression of extreme acts and opinions in an affectless style. He employs a technique of linking novels with common, recurring characters. When Ellis was 21, his first novel, the controversial bestseller Less Than Zero (1985), was published by Simon & Schuster. His third novel, American Psycho (1991), was his most successful; upon release, the literary establishment widely condemned it as overly violent and misogynistic.
