An Evening with David Sedaris

Bestselling author and humorist David Sedaris is a master of satire and one of his generation's most observant writers.

Beloved for his personal essays and short stories, David Sedaris is the author of New York Times bestsellers Barrel Fever, Holidays on Ice, Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls, Calypso, and Happy-Go-Lucky, as well as two volumes of diaries, children's books, half-a-dozen plays cowritten with his sister Amy Sedaris, and numerous contributions to The New Yorker. His new book of essays, The Land and Its People, was released in May of this year.

Sedaris's many accolades include five GRAMMY Award nominations for Best Spoken Word and Best Comedy Album, an Audie Award, a BBC Audio Drama Award for Best Stand Up or Sketch Comedy,

the Terry Southern Prize for Humor, the Thurber Prize for American Humor, the Jonathan Swift International Literature Prize for Satire and Humor, the Time Humorist of the Year Award, and the Medal for Spoken Language from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

In 2020, the New York Public Library voted Me Talk Pretty One Day one of the 125 most important books of the last 125 years.

"Sedaris ain't the preeminent humorist of his generation by accident."

Whitney Pastorek, Entertainment Weekly

"Sedaris has hit upon the narrative equivalent of Pepsi, or the PlayStation, or oxygen, or the haircut: something that others in the world might actually want and find useful. . .  He's smart, he's caustic, he's mordant, and, somehow, he's . . . well, nice."

Bill Richardson, Toronto Globe and Mail
