Brad Williams in Pleasanton CA July 17-20's Comedian Bio
Bio
Comedian Brad Williams has lived a true comic Cinderella story. Born with Achondroplastic dwarfism, Brad would endure countless taunts and gawks from classmates and random people on the street. Instead of crying about it, Brad turned to humor. He discovered that by making jokes about his condition, he could make other people comfortable and get laughs in the process. Stand-up was a logical step for Brad and he began hitting the local open mic nights and coffeehouses. One night at a Carlos Mencia show, Carlos asked Brad if he wanted to do time. After his set, Mencia decided to bring Brad on the road with him as his opening act. Brad has been touring with Carlos ever since, even making a few appearances on The Mind of Mencia on Comedy Central. Brads ability to make humorous observations that make everyone comfortable with difference is winning over audiences and proving that anyone can overcome their shortcomings.
Influences
Carlos Mencia, Steve Trevino, Christopher Titus, Daniel Tosh, and Al Madrigal.

I like people who live for the moment. I like people who don't bitch about their problems and make drama out of nothing. I like real people. Girls who are independent, physically and emotionally. Guys who are tough but aren't afriad to show a soft side. I like females who can speak spanish while rubbing the back of my neck. Who don't care how they look before going out because they all ready know I think they're beautiful. And most importantly, I like people with a sense of humor. Life is funny. God has a sense of humor and he puts laughter in many parts of life that some people can't see. So laugh a little, you'll thank me later.
What up? Hey, you've probably had those Iraq pics up for quite some time now, but it's the first time I'm seeing them, and I want you to know that we're grateful for your time and effort exerted to bring laughter to our brothers- and sisters-in-arms.
Take it easy, Brad. Good luck in all you do, and keep making people laugh... even if that's almost effortless on your part - after all, all you've got to do is walk into a room.
