The first book from one of the most popular comedians of the twenty-first century There are many sides to the comedic genius of Jeff Dunham, who has risen in recent years to become a genuine entertainment phenomenon, having sold more than four million DVDs and who performs sold-out shows across the world. It's all because Jeff Dunham is not just one of the funniest humans on the planet but the ringleader of a cast of comedic characters like Walter the grumpy retiree; the beer-swilling, NASCAR loving and resolutely redneck Bubba J; the furry and manic Peanut; Jose Jalapeno, the spicy pepper from south of the border; and the bumbling skeletal Achmed the Dead Terrorist. There is no wonder why Time Magazine calls him "the most popular stand-up comedian in the U.S." He has rocketed into the pantheon of top comedians thanks to a dynamic combination of humane warmth, a keen sense of the humor to be found in everyday life, a sharp wit, and a cutting- edge sensibility. Political correctness is not in his-or his characters'- vocabulary, and millions of fans love him for it. All by My Selves is Jeff's story, a comedic memoir that takes us behind the curtain to explain how he turned a tired, vaudevillian art form into something truly modern and hip. Not only will Jeff show how he developed his characters and how his act has evolved, but he'll also share details of his life as a working comedian and family man on the road. Best of all, Jeff's story will be vetted by his characters-they'll tell the "real" story, all the hilarious details Jeff himself is too modest to include.
