Praise for Alison

“Alison is simultaneously funny, smart and engaging – and she has an extraordinary ability to connect with an audience. When you’re fund-raising, as we were when she did two separate performances for the Adoption Institute, all of those traits make a huge difference. And they certainly did for us.”
--Adam Pertman, Executive Director, Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute

“Alison truly is a unforgettable speaker. As she tells her own story in a hilarious but thought provoking way, she has a way of connecting to everyone in the room. Her passion is contagious and her approach is both comedic and remarkably wise and learned.”
--General Manager, Miraval Spa Tucson, (as featured on Oprah)

“The evaluations are pouring in, and there was NOT A SINGLE NEGATIVE ONE regarding your keynote performance -- an absolute first for a Barker conference. Congrats again! You were a triumph! We are still high as kites from the conference. It was a day people will never forget.”
--Marilyn Regier, The Barker Foundation, Washington DC

“Alison Larkin is a powerful superstar of a speaker/performer who consistently packs out my theatre! A fresh, entertaining voice.”
--Eric Hafen, Artistic Director, Bickford Theatre

“Engaging . . . deliciously comic.”
--Bruce Dessau, The Evening Standard

“Hysterically funny, new, bi-hemispheric comedienne.”
--Clive Pearse, NBC TV

“Hilarious . . . moving.”
--Susan Flockhart, The Sunday Herald

“There’s wit to spare in her assessment of both cultures George Manet.”
--Union Jack

“With wit, a light touch, and brilliant comic timing, Larkin sweeps the nature/nurture debate for every last crumb of hilarity.”
--Amy Kitzlinger, Adoptive Families Magazine
