The Ghostwriter Speaks! |
Although painfully shy and ill-suited for self-promotion, Mark is
making strides to overcome his essential nature by doing more and
more public speaking.
His remarks, "From The
Principal's Office to The Oval Office," recount with
anecdotes and insight the origins of an unlikely career path and lessons
learned along the way. More importantly, it offers a unique perspective
on the Clinton presidency from the person who's job it was to find
the funny rejoinder to every crisis from "I did not inhale"
to "I did not have sex with that woman." The speech is highlighted
with a showing of the acclaimed Clinton Farewell video, The
Final Days.

Office."

really, really funny."

being lauded ny UJA higher-ups for my remarkable achievement --of
course this has nothing to do with me and everything to do with you."

"Your speech to our conference was all we could have
hoped for: informative, insightful and really, really funny. After
you left, I was barraged with the same two questions: "where
did you find him?" and "is he single--I want to introduce
him to my daughter?"
-Jennifer Noll of the Town Hall Lecture Series
wrote:
"To be honest, we booked you because you cost less than
Al Franken. We really had no way of knowing how funny you were. Please
take no insult when I tell you that, dollar for dollar, you are a
hysterical bargain."
