 e Talk Pretty One Day\, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim\, and regu
 lar National Public Radio contributor will be appearing for one night only
  at the Durham Performing Arts Center on Friday\, October 26 at 8:00pm.<br
  /><br />Celebrating the release of his new title\, Squirrel Seeks Chipmun
 k: A Modest Bestiary\, a book of acerbic\, outrageously funny fables\, fea
 turing animals with unmistakably human failings\, which hit bookstores Sep
 tember 2010\, author David Sedaris will visit Durham for an evening of eng
 aging recollections and featuring all-new readings.<br /><br />Tweaking th
 e familiar until it warps\; David Sedaris mines poignant comedy from his p
 eculiar childhood in North Carolina\, his bizarre career path\, and his mo
 ve with his lover to France. Including his last release\, the New York Tim
 es #1 Bestselling book\, When You Are Engulfed in Flames\, David Sedarisâ€
 ™ wickedly witty observations of the ordinary-bizarre is always sure to de
 liver insights and laughs. One of six children in a second-generation Gree
 k family\, he grew up in Raleigh\, North Carolina. In 1977\, he dropped ou
 t of Kent State University to hitchhike around the country. Aside from wor
 king as an elf\, Sedaris has worked a number of charmingly quirky jobs suc
 h as a house painter\, an apple picker\, an aide in a mental hospital\, a 
 creative writing teacher at the Art Institute of Chicago\, and an apartmen
 t cleaner.<br /><br />Sedaris made his comic debut recounting his strange-
 but-true experiences of being a Macy’s elf\, reading his “Santaland Di
 aries” on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition in 1992. His sardoni
 c humor and incisive social critique have made him one of NPR’s most pop
 ular and humorous commentators. In 2001\, he was named Humorist of the Yea
 r by Time magazine and received the Thurber Prize for American Humor.<br /
