In this fast-paced world where anxiety is part of everyday chores, humor acts as a relaxant. Many humorists made their mark and won world acclaim but none can be compared with David Sedaris. Described by many as the America’s best humorist, Sedaris is a Grammy award-nominated writer, playwright and radio performer. As SantaLand Diaries was broadcasted in 1992, Sedaris gained recognition from his very first platform of National Public Radio. Born in Binghamton, New York and belonging to Greek-American lineage, his inclination towards visual and performing art grew in his twenties. After graduating from School of Art Institute of Chicago in 1987, Sedaris was initially found in performing various odd jobs before making his debut in the National Public Radio on Ira Glass’ weekly program, The Wild Room. Describing his personal experiences through SantaLand Diaries, Sedaris turned a huge radio backing as the listeners applauded his descriptive style. Later on the SantaLand Diaries was considered for screenplay adaptation for Touchstone Pictures. Author of the masterpieces and bestsellers like Holidays on Ice and also Barrel Fever, also the collection of personal essays including Me Talk Pretty One Day, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Naked and Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, Sedaris’ works were published in millions and translated into more than two dozen languages thus claiming a large audience anxious for his recent piece of creativity.

With the release of Barrel Fever— his first book of essays and stories in 1994, Sedaris also kept on contributing his essays in The NewYoker and Esquire. It was not just David who reached the height of fame from the family, rather the whole family was literally creative, especially his sister Amy. Sedaris and his sister both made a fabulous effort in The Talent Family that comprised of number of plays which were even staged at various theatres in New York. A few of them even received awards as well. With the spark of autobiography in his works and many claim to have recurrent references towards self devaluation, Sedaris hits upon many personal topics in his works that included his brought up as a middle class, the time when he was a drug addict, his family life, homosexuality—a benign factor from his parents and the time that he spent in France. All these factors make his writings more natural and closer to reality but one must not forget the fact that the exquisite writing style also plays a dominant role in making him a great success. Debuting with a huge success of Barrel Fever in 1994, the preceding work of essays was published in 1997 titled Naked. With most of the written task done in France, Me Talk Pretty One Day came into the hands of public in 2000, which not only attained Thurber Prize for American Humor but the widely read Time magazine also appreciated Sedaris’ efforts by naming him as “Humorist of the Year” in 2001.

The year 2004 was fully packed with appreciation as Sedaris was nominated for Grammy Award for his album Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim. Attaining the nomination for best Comedy Album Live at Carnegie Hall recordings won an immense applause amongst its listeners. With a brief reference towards giving up smoking along with many other stories, When You Are Engulfed in Flames turned out to be a best seller. And recently in October 2010, Sedaris had a plan to publish his much awaited work, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary with the title claiming itself his fondness towards animals acting in human situations. Such innovative ideas and topics can only be the creation of a creative mind one like that of Sedaris. The vast range of topics and the little notebook bursting with the word bank and diverse situations acts as a fuel for his writings. He takes notes of every moment of the attractive situations he comes across. This leads him to the direction which is far from ordinary yet very close to reality. The humor in Sedaris’ works is not an enforced one. This is something deeply engrained within him that produces excellence in his writings. In an interview to Time magazine, Sedaris describes an interesting instance of one of his odd jobs that he performed in life. While working in Chicago, he had the job of clearing the attic with dead squirrels that usually take refuge there. While doing so he described his feeling of uneasiness while lying over the dead squirrels having maggots on them. Such experiences make one tough enough to experience the complexities of life.
