Originally from Olympia, Washington, Anthony Schuman is an archetypical Pacific Northwesterner with the sense of humor to show for it: He’s a fisherman, writer, filmmaker, army vet, subsistence farmer, photographer, kayaker, hiking fan, and father of four. But mostly he’s a comedian. That’s probably why you’re reading this right now.

Anthony’s comedy is energetic and funny, honest but light-hearted, and heavily influenced by how much he loves his family (“a lot”). Hopefully he’ll see you in the audience sometime, where he might just teach you about NICU decorum or chickens’ limitations — and make you laugh all in one.
