About the Author

When she was 10 years old, Jan declared to her parents that once she turned 16, she was going to "buy a motorcycle, ride cross-country to Los Angeles and become a comedian." Her parents didn't quite share her "vision" so she ended up graduating from Virginia Tech and having a marketing career for over a decade before getting on stage. Today, 16 years into her comedy career, Jan has performed for thousands of groups, and she's been featured in The Wall Street Journal as a top convention comedian whose act is clean. Jan has also sold comedy material to just about everyone on the planet--from late night TV shows, to hundreds of radio stations, CEOs and professional speakers. Oh, yes, Jan did finally make it cross-country to Los Angeles, where she currently resides, AND she just bought a motorcycle!
