GUEST: D'Yan Forest - One Funny Morning 6/13/24

At 89 years old D’yan Forest is the Guinness Book of World Record’s Oldest Working Female Comedian. She was raised in the conservative suburbs of Boston, but after a “scandalous” divorce for the time and two years of oral French lessons, Forest got on a five-day boat ride to study abroad in Paris. She fell in love with the city and the culture, which would determine the trajectory of the rest of her career.

Back in the US, Forest performed as an international singer, but her music career was cut short in New York City when entertainment came to a halt following the 9/11 attacks … so she took an unexpected turn into the world of comedy.
With her ukulele in hand, Forest put together a hysterical and risqué one-woman show that's landed her on the same stages as Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, and Joan Rivers. In fact, upon meeting Rivers, she referred to Forest as “the filthy ukulele player.”

Her book “I Did it My Ways” is the culmination of her sitcom-worthy life events, now available for all to read. Her act, “Swinging on the Seine,” can still be seen in New York and Paris at some of the most famed comedy clubs. Check out her upcoming shows - www.dyanforest.com
