Brian Jaffe

BRIAN JAFFE (Author/Freddie Kahn). In addition to writing Going Once! Laughing Twice!! Brian has written the comedies Sunset in Canaan, Bloodsucking in America and Skitzofrenia in which he also appeared. His excruciatingly funny memoir Squeaking By is scheduled to be published mid-December. As a benefit fundraising auctioneer Brian is in a class by himself. Through his auctioneering, his seminars and consulting skills, he raises millions of dollars annually for non-profits including private and public schools, charities, hospitals, community groups and a variety of foundations. As a comedian Brian has used his auctions to entertain high rollers at the Sands, Resorts and Claridge Casinos in Atlantic City which is also where La Galerie, the precursor to this current show at St. Luke’s, was performed to rave reviews. He also insists that he was the first person to ever call dungarees “jeans”.
