Personal Life
Caplan grew up in Northridge, California. He currently lives in Oakton, Virginia with his wife, three sons, and daughter. He describes himself as being type ENTJ on the MBTI and as an "openly nerdy man." He is the author of one graphic novel and several role-playing game campaigns. He has described role-playing games as "an art form, on par with novels, or movies, or comics" and has been published in Dragon magazine.
According to Caplan, he was first introduced to libertarian political philosophy through the writings of Ayn Rand and that it was his interest in philosophy that drew him to study economics.
