David Lee NELSON: Raised in the suburbs of Upstate South Carolina and currently lives in Brooklyn with two cats. After earning a Masters Degree form the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, David realized he was sick of performing in front of people who had no idea what he was saying, so he decided to make the logical leap from Shakespeare to stand up comedy.
A regular on the New York City Comedy scene, David's intelligent, high energy stand up comedy is quickly earning him fans all across the country. He tours tirelessly and has been heard on Sirius Satellite Radio. Also a writer, his column, "Silence of Lucky", can be read several times a week at CharlestonCityPaper.com."If you're lucky, you'll catch this comic"- Post and Courier (Charleston, SC)" Very funny white person" - Charleston City Paper
