Mack Dryden Biography

Whether you’re looking to inspire the troops or just make them laugh ’til they hurt, Mack Dryden is a guaranteed hit, as hundreds of thrilled clients are happy to attest. He’s been delighting audiences for years with his relaxed stage presence, hilarious stories, and uniquely engaging delivery. As a comedian, he’s performed on dozens of TV shows, including several appearances on "The Tonight Show". As an actor, he’s appeared in several movies and on many other TV shows, including "JAG" and a recurring role as a judge on ABC’s "The Guardian".

Creating hilarious custom humor for each client comes naturally to Dryden, who has written for several network TV shows; and his stories of surviving two battles with cancer, a stay in an African prison, "sharks in showbiz who stab you in the front," and one "near-fatal marriage" are as inspiring as they are laugh-out-loud funny. He is also recognized for his keynote speeches that blend humor and inspiration, particularly emphasizing resilience in overcoming adversity, such as his battles with cancer and challenging life experiences which he encapsulates in his popular keynote "Laugh to the Top: A Hilarious Guide to Achieving Your Goals."

From humble beginnings as "the funniest paper mill employee in Mississippi," Dryden earned a black belt in karate even as he was earning his Masters in Creative Writing. He won two Associated Press writing awards as a reporter in his home state, and finally became a professional comedian whose talent and perseverance landed him numerous TV appearances, several movie roles, and writing credits for a number of TV shows. Now based in Louisville, KY, he spends his time writing and traveling the country bringing his special brand of motivation, inspiration, and jubilation to thousands each year. His presentations are known not just for their humor but also for their ability to motivate teams, enhance creativity, and boost organizational morale, making his sessions a valuable addition to any event. He has been described as "America's Funniest Motivator," a title that captures his ability to blend comedic talent with motivational speaking.

Mack Dryden Speaking Topics

  • Laugh to the Top: A Hilarious Guide to Achieving Your Goals

His practical seven-step formula for achieving personal and professional goals has garnered nothing but rave reviews, and Mack always writes an appropriate amount of special custom material for every client free of charge

  • Fall-Down Funny Standup Comedy

    Mack’s relaxed stage presence, years of experience, and rib-busting, clean comedy ensures that he’s a huge hit everywhere he performs.

  • Celebrating Cancer Survival: Live Happy, Laugh Loud

    The funniest two-time cancer survivor in the country inspires and motivates with his hilarious stories of beating the Grim Reaper twice in his uniquely warm, family-friendly style.

  • The Perfect Host

    When your awards show, general session, or other event needs a professional to keep it light and lively, Mack is unsurpassed in providing exactly the right balance of taking care of business and getting the laughs.

  • Speak Effectively—And Learn Humor Secrets from a Pro (Break-out)

    Mack’s hands-on seminar is as effective as it is entertaining, whether it’s one-on-one training for a single executive, or for a class of twenty managers who want to improve their presentation skills. Mack can teach an in-depth three-hour course, but his students can double their effectiveness on the platform after an eye-opening one-hour breakout in the hands of one of the smoothest and most experienced communicators in the business. Mack will put however much emphasis on “The Effective Use of Humor” segment as the client desires, while keeping the entire seminar light and entertaining.
