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 Alison's keynote performance -- an absolute first for a Barker conference. She was a triumph and the conference sold out because of her. It was a day people will never forget.
--Marilyn Regier, The Barker Foundation, Washington DC

Alison Larkin is a powerful superstar of a performer who consistently packs out my theatre! A fresh, entertaining voice with a joyous energy that uplifts the spirit.
--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.
