How to Do it Standing Up: The Friars Club Guide to Being a Comic by Barry Dougherty

About the author

Barry Dougherty is the author of non-fiction books that highlight the humor and wit of celebrity roasts, standup comedy, and hysterical historic spots like the legendary Friars Club. And he never heard a joke he didn’t like–at least while in front of the person telling it. His humorous perspective on his own life’s journey plays out in essays that highlight his ability to find the lighthearted moments in everyday living. He's shared his work both in publications and as a contributing reader on the Living Out Loud: Writers Riff on Love, Sweat & Fears essay tour. He also presents his work in his one-man show entitled, "My Life In 5 Essays by Barry Dougherty."
