Let There Be Laughter: A Treasury of Great Jewish Humor and What It All Means" by Michael Krasny

We’re overjoyed to welcome the host of KQED’s Forum for a lunchtime event that will leave you rolling in the aisles. No one knows more—and funnier—Jewish jokes than Michael Krasny; he’s been telling them since his Bar Mitzvah. In Let There Be Laughter, he explores the themes of Jewish humor, celebrates its heroes (from Mel Brooks to Larry David to Amy Schumer), and regales readers with more than a few unforgettable and iconic jokes. Warning: don’t drink from your water glass while he’s talking unless you feel like doing a “spit take.”
