Susan Vass Speaker's Home Base: MN AZ Susan Vass is a woman who knows how to laugh at life. Called both “a young Erma Bombeck” and “a female Jay Leno”, Susan has helped audiences “laugh their way to good health” in over 2,000 appearances from coast to coast. With her roots in stand-up comedy, Susan has opened for such national acts as Robert Goulet, Andy Williams, Lee Greenwood, The Smothers Brothers, Doc Severinsen, Jay Leno, and Joan Rivers. She is a veteran of countless television and radio appearances, including Rosie O’Donnell’s “Standup Spotlight”, PBS’s comedy special about Minnesota comics, “Land O’Loons”, and National Public Radio’s “Prairie Home Companion” with fellow-Minnesotan Garrison Keillor. She is the author of a best-selling humor book, “Laughing Your Way to Good Health.” All women can relate to Susan -- With over four decades of actual experience as a female, Susan easily turns her vivid imagination and powers of everyday observation to the lighter side of womanhood. She co-produced and headlined in the wildly-successful comedy revue "What's So Funny About Being Female?" which ran five nights a week, five months of the year, for five years straight in the popular Dudley Riggs' Theatre in Minneapolis. One of Susan's specialties is Women's Health Day events for hospital women's centers, and she has delighted sold-out audiences from Connecticut to California, from Louisiana to North Dakota, from New Mexico to New York, and from South Dakota to South Carolina. As a wife and mother, Susan is a natural crowd-pleaser at "spouse" events. But, because she is a businesswoman (and has worked as a retail clerk, secretary, childcare provider and night-shift typesetter), she also understands the needs and stresses of women who work outside the home. Famous for her squeaky-clean, corporate-appropriate comedy shows, she has literally entertained car salesmen at breakfast and nuns the same night! Most Popular Topics: 50 Things I've Learned So Far This keynote is a combination of inspiration, reflection, and hilarity in which Susan draws the lessons -- both large and small, amusing and meaningful -- from her 50-plus years on the planet. Normal running time is about 50 minutes. The list can be expanded or contracted to suit your needs. Like ALL Susan's shows, this one is so clean it has been performed in front of an audience which included 40 nuns! Laughing Your Way To Good Health This lively presentation takes a look at the mind-body connection and the importance of attitude and laughter to health. Participants learn how to find humor in everyday life, how many times per day the average adult laughs, and the physiological benefits of laughter. Susan has presented this witty, upbeat program to countless women's health days, to cancer survivor groups, to stressed-out educators, and to long-term and acute care caregivers, as well as in the corporate setting from Medtronic to Target to 3M and General Mills. About 45 minutes to one hour. Can be shorter or longer, according to your needs. What's So Funny About Being Female? A riotous romp that touches on every aspect of the female experience. From diet and exercise to love and marriage; from pregnancy and water retention to car insurance rates for your teenage son; from creeping memory loss to menopause. Warning: don't wear mascara to this event--it will be all over your face at the end! Service With A Smile A witty and extremely informative look at customer service in America.

With numerous examples of both good and bad service drawn from her own busy life, Susan shows just how easy it is to impress your customers--and how hard it is to recover their business once a mistake has been made. You can't afford NOT to have your customer service personnel hear this talk! AARP, AARP, Is that Mid-Life Barking at My Heels?
