David Sedaris, NPR Humorist and Best-selling Author of Me Talk Pretty One Day and Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, is coming to Abravanel Hall for one night. Sedaris will release his latest book When You Are Engulfed in Flames in June 2008. Tickets will go on sale to the public in May 9th through ArtTix, 355-ARTS and ArtTix.org. Presented by NewSpace Entertainment. Sponsored by KUER. With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, David Sedaris has become one of America 's pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that Sedaris is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. David Sedaris is the author of the bestsellers Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice, as well as collections of personal essays, Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, and Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, each of which became immediate bestsellers. He is the editor of an anthology of stories, Children Playing Before a Statue of Hercules: An Anthology of Outstanding Stories. His essays appear regularly in Esquire and The New Yorker. Sedaris and his sister, Amy Sedaris, have collaborated under the name 'The Talent Family' and have written several plays which have been produced at La Mama, Lincoln Center and The Drama Department in New York City. His next collection of essays, titled When You Are Engulfed in Flames, will be published in June 2008.
