David Sedaris, master of satire and “champion storyteller” (Los Angeles Times), returns to Arts & Letters Live for an evening of laughter and reflection. With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, Sedaris has become one of America’s preeminent humor writers. At this event, he will read new and unpublished material, answer questions from the audience, and sign books.

Sedaris is beloved for his personal essays, which regularly appear in the New Yorker. He is the author of numerous books, including Calypso, a Washington Post Best Book of the Year; A Carnival of Snackery: Diaries (2003–2020); and his latest collection, Happy-Go-Lucky, an Audie Award Winner. There are over 10 million copies of his books in print.

David Sedaris has been nominated for five Grammy Awards for Best Spoken Word and Best Comedy Album. 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.

This event does not have a virtual option.

Sedaris is a singularly talented humorist who lands acerbic zingers with the calculating precision of a kamikaze pilot.
