Not only did Claire Berger hear it, chances are she wrote it. With a career in comedy that spans over 2 decades and around the globe -- from comedy clubs and colleges to keeping audiences entertained during the taping of popular sitcoms -- comedian Claire Berger realized that the one place where humor is most needed, but often missing, is the workplace. In her ability to reach people through humor, she discovered a valuable tool that could be highly effective in a business environment. With the creation of FunnyWorks, Inc. in 1998, Claire focused her talents (along with a staff of comedy writers) to bring humor into the workplace and help corporate America tap into one of its most valuable hidden resources.

Claire began her comedy career in Chicago with the legendary Second City improvisational theater. She’s received critical acclaim as a stand-up comedian and radio talk show host. After moving to Los Angeles, she found great success as a warm-up comedian entertaining audiences of over 65 different television shows including “Seinfeld,” “Just Shoot Me,” “The Ellen Show” and nine seasons of “Murphy Brown.” As the host of the HGTV’s “Fantasy Open House,” Claire became the first stand-up comic the network trusted to host a series, taking viewers on an offbeat tour of exquisite multi-million dollar homes around the country. Her new book, ‘FUNNY WORKS! 52 Ways to Have More Fun at Work’ (Seven Locks Press), gives the working world easy ways to create a more productive atmosphere at the office.

Claire is often referred to as the ‘exotic’ exception in comedy. Juggling a flourishing career making people laugh and nurturing a 25-year marriage with two kids is a fantasy most accomplished comedians dream of, but rarely achieve.

Below are a list of Claire's presentations:

Are We Having Fun Yet? 52 Ways To Have More Fun at School, Work and Life
(Ideal for staff development, leadership conferences, retreats, faculty, club and association meetings and lecture series)
Through this highly interactive presentation, Claire inspires audiences to be more positive and productive by incorporating more fun in their lives. She accomplishes this by creating awareness to the numerous benefits of humor in promoting the health and well being of both students and faculty. Claire is living proof that tapping into the power of humor increases productivity, enhances relationships and ultimately contributes to a healthier and happier life.
