Charlie Todd: Patton Oswalt's Keynote Address from Montreal JFL

charlietodd:

Patton Oswalt’s keynote address from the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival is outstanding. He read two open letters, one to comedians and one to gatekeepers.

You can read both in their entirety here.

Here’s my favorite part of the letter to gatekeepers:

Dear gatekeepers in broadcast…

YES!! Thanks Charlie for pointing this out!

About Me

I am a French-Iranian woman in New York. I have a passion for comedy, and have been lucky to be performing all over New York since 2010. I was a TV producer and a head writer for a morning live news show in France, as well as a free lance journalist and a book editor for many years.

Now, I am a life and a career coach (member of
ICF
) and a comedian, and an improviser and a show producer - because life is too short and I want it all!

Also, I believe in love.

I am a performer at the UCB & used to produce a show at The PIT in New York.

Check out my indie teams: Pou&Nic and PANTS!.

My other blog: International Comedy Team

My French blog: La Vie à l'Impro

I used to be involved with the Diversity Initiative at the UCB and manage their blog too: UCBDifference.tumblr.com

I fight cancer with a passion - I want to contribute to a world where cancer will be as benign as a simple cold. Where you can donate against cancer of any kind and give hope to families and patients
