About this event
Memorial Park Library, 2nd Floor. Kliph Nesteroff is the author of three previous books about comedy: The Comedians; We Had a Little Real Estate Problem; and Outrageous. Widely considered the preeminent “historian of comedy” (The New York Times), his work has been praised by Mel Brooks, Steve Martin and the late Norm Macdonald. Nesteroff was a regular on WTF with Marc Maron and Gilbert Gottfried’s Amazing Colossal Podcast; appears frequently on CNN, HBO and Vice; and has worked on projects with Judd Apatow, Albert Brooks and Rob Reiner. Born in Castlegar, British Columbia, he grew up watching Wayne and Shuster and The Kids in the Hall on CBC.
