Kelly Carlin

Kelly Carlin has always been curious about the big questions of life. Watching her father, George Carlin, be an iconoclastic comedy legend certainly didn’t hurt too. Like him she loves to use humor to question the status quo, and she loves to seek out the unique angle into any subject she tackles. But unlike him, she brings a more personal and emotional tone to her work. With her personal story, pathos, emotion and psychological insight she reveals the joy and challenges that comes with trying to live an authentic life.

She is a public speaker, hosts both "The Kelly Carlin Show" on SiriusXM, and "Waking from the American Dream" on SModcast Network, tours her newest one-woman show, "A Carlin Home Companion," and is now an author. Her memoir "A Carlin Home Companion," was published by St. Martin’s Press to great reviews and success.
