Jeanne Robertson is a professional speaker who specializes in hilarious humor based
on her life experiences. Speaking to thousands of people annually, she utilizes her
positively funny style to illustrate that a sense of humor is much more than a laughing
matter. It is a strategy for success.
Other speakers might be as witty as Jeanne. Some might even be as tall. (Barefooted with
her hair "mashed" down, she's 6'2" in her size 11B stocking feet.) But nowhere will you find
a speaker so adept at turning personal experiences into funny material that does more than
elicit laughter. This Miss Congeniality winner in the Miss America Pageant, “Yearrrrrrrrrrrs
ago,” quoting Jeanne, uses her down-home Southern drawl to leave her audiences laughing
. . . and thinking about her message.
Jeanne's success as a humorous speaker has not gone unnoticed by her peers. She has
been awarded every top honor in her profession. They like her back home too. The NC
Press Association named Jeanne 2001 North Carolinian of the Year.
You may have seen this Hall of Fame speaker being interviewed by CBS correspondent
Morley Safer on "60 Minutes" . . . or watched one of the six humor DVDs she has produced
in the last eleven years . . . or heard her daily on Sirius/XM Radio’s Family Comedy
Channels . . . or seen her Youtube clips that have had millions of hits. But only if you've seen
Jeanne in person at one of the thousands of speeches she has given over the
past 45 years can you really appreciate why she stands at the top of her profession.
Jeanne Robertson is funny. Oh my, yes. She also knows that her job is far more than being
funny. Her message is that a sense of humor is an attitude, an approach toward working with
people. She believes that this humor attitude can be developed and improved, and she
outlines how to do so while captivating audiences with funny, original stories.
