David Sedaris

Author and public radio contributor David Sedaris is a gifted satirist and a compelling storyteller. The satire is why he matters; the storytelling is why we love him. His chronicles convey all the double-take hilarity, squirming discomfort, jaw-dropping shock, or sheer goofy delight he has experienced himself. As he takes in the world around him with his singular eye for detail, David Sedaris somehow keeps his finger on the pulse of all of us.
