Wallechinsky was born in Los Angeles to a Jewish family,[1] the son of writer Sylvia Kahn and the author and screenwriter Irving Wallace.
One day, after he got off an airplane in Britain, the customs officer looked at his passport and remarked, "Ah Wallace, a good Scottish boy coming home."
In 1985, Wallechinsky followed the book previously co-authored with Medved with a sequel, going back to his high school graduation year contemporaries and solely writing a similar retrospective Midterm Report: The Class of '65: Chronicles of an American Generation about pupils from across America who left high school in that year.
He interviewed twenty-eight of those 1965 graduates including President Jimmy Carter's son Jack, and Rhode Island's then-congressional Representative Claudine Schneider.
It was later published as "Class Reunion '65, Tales of an American Generation," written from the perspective of two decades post-high school graduation.
