TEDxGlastonbury - Dan Nainan - Comedian June 20, 2011

Favorite:

Dan Nainan got his start by taking a comedy class to get over the nervousness of speaking on stage. In his job as a demo engineer with Intel Corporation, Dan toured the world with Chairman Andy Grove, demonstrating the latest technology for audiences numbering into the thousands.

After leaving Intel to pursue comedy full time, Dan has appeared on network television including "Last Comic Standing", as well as in feature films, on radio and in an Apple "Get a Mac" commercial. He has performed comedy on five continents, including the Democratic National Convention, three Obama inaugural events and for Donald Trump at his golf course in Palm Beach, Florida (Donald's golf course, that is, not Dan's).

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At
a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
