The Center for the Arts
Genre: Comedy, Satire Bestselling Author & Humorist David Sedaris is one of America's preeminent humor writers — a master of satire, a five-time Grammy nominee, and the author of nine New York Times bestsellers including Me Talk Pretty One Day, Naked, Calypso, and Happy-Go-Lucky. With over 16 million books in print in 32 languages, his sharp, confessional essays have made him one of the most recognized voices in American letters. A longtime contributor to The New Yorker and CBS Sunday Morning, Sedaris first captured the public imagination with his NPR debut and has never looked back — earning the Thurber Prize for American Humor, the Jonathan Swift International Literature Prize, and membership in the American Academy of Arts and Letters, among many other honors. His live shows are events unto themselves: new and unpublished work, candid audience Q&A, and book signings that fans talk about for years. "Sedaris ain't the preeminent humorist of his generation by accident." — Entertainment Weekly
