Naster in a Nutshell

David Naster was born.

He grew up in smart-alec family teaching him how to survive with humor. David went to college to study Psychology. He decided he would rather make fun of people than help them. That’s when Naster began making people laugh for a living, having no idea how laughter would help people in ways never imagined.

31 years later – Naster’s ability to make audiences laugh is compared to Robin Williams and Red Skelton. When Bob Costas needed to replace Billy Crystal for his annual charity event – he hired David Naster. Naster is an expert of the benefits of humor and laughter. His philosophy; You Just have To Laugh is endorsed by such people as Larry King, Dr Bernie Siegel and founder of Southwest Airlines Herb Kelleher.

David’s first two books, “You Just Have To Laugh through Tough Times” and  “When Work Gets TOUGH – You Just Have To Laugh” were voted “Best Humor” award of 2007 and 2008, by the Association of Applied Therapeutic Humor. An international organization made up of doctors, nurses and health-care professionals.

David’s latest book, “Is there Laugh after Death” is a sincere and groundbreaking approach of offering humor in grief. The stories are hysterical and help heal a grieving soul. 

Nobody does what Naster does. Nobody! He’s an author, keynote speaker and philosopher. Naster is a rare blend of quality entertainment and true inspiration. He is funny without cursing. He motivates without preaching. David’s philosophy is: “Making people laugh is wonderful. Teaching them how to find the humor in tough times and laugh is why I’m here.”
