David Misch

Laughter and libraries rarely go hand in hand, but come Thursday evening, that is likely to change. Come hear comedy writer David Misch read from his new book, Funny: The Book, which explores the art of comedy. Misch, a writer for such shows at Mork and Mindy and SNL, traces the art of humor from its historical roots to modern day scientific analysis about what makes something funny. In addition to a reading and signing, Misch will offer his acclaimed presentation, which includes clips of humorous moments from TV shows and movies and has been touring across the country since the book's release earlier this year.
