Mary Croxton introduced Dr. Leanna McMahon, who presented her paper on humorist David Sedaris:
David Raymond Sedaris was born near Binghamton, NY in 1956 to IBM engineer Lou Sedaris and his wife Sharon. Lou Sedaris was soon transferred to Raleigh, North Carolina. Sedaris grew up there along with his four sisters; Lisa, Gretchen, Amy, and Tiffany; and the baby of the family, his brother, Paul; all have been frequent subjects of his many humorous essays.
