Diana Jordan: Profile

Female comedian Diana Jordan appeared on “Oprah” for the first time, Oprah Winfrey selected Diana Jordan as “one of the funniest people on the planet” along with Jerry Seinfeld, Robin Williams and Bill Cosby, and later again commented, “Diana is a star of tomorrow!” That is the effect Diana Jordan has on most people. Jordan has also been nominated by the American Comedy Awards in as one of the Top Five Female Comedians in the Country.

Keynote speaker and a 20-year veteran as a stand-up comic, Diana has developed a loyal following with a humor that puts both men and women in stitches. An accomplished singer, be ready to snap and clap as you find yourself astounded at Diana’s having “Such a big voice from such a tiny body! Great performance!” --Orange County Register.

Published by Avon Publishers, Diana's bestseller book, "A Wife’s Little Instruction Book: Your Survival Guide to Marriage Without Bloodshed!” sold over 450,000 copies. This reader friendly paperback offers witty and humorous words of wisdom about sharing life with a male. It has been published in five countries and in five languages.

As a corporate female comedian Diana was featured in the HBO special “Women of the Night” that spotlighted 5 top female comedians and also has two feature film roles to her credit including a performance in Sony’s blockbuster hit “Jerry McGuire” with Tom Cruise and a co-starring credit in the independent film “Loretta’s Surprise” that was featured in the Sundance Film Festival.

Throughout her career, Diana has performed at such high-profile venues as Radio City Music Hall, The Kennedy Center, The Greek Theatre and Garden State Arts Center. Diana, a member of The National Speakers Association, feels she has truly found her niche by combining her gift of comedy and desire to share with people that they can “learn to laugh!” And through this, it is her greatest desire; “To heal the world one laugh at a time!"

Born and raised in small town in Oklahoma, Diana has spent the last 25 years working in Hollywood, and currently resides in Florida with her puppy, Miss Gracie. She is now authoring her first children's book entitled "Neville, the Near-Sighted Shark", about why people be judged based on how they look.

The Power of a Happy Heart, Nourishing the Nurse Within You
Nurses, not just ‘Care Givers’ you are ‘Rare Givers'

What separates Diana Jordan from other speakers, humorists, and motivational speakers, is that she has lived of what she speaks. In her very entertaining keynote, Diana speaks of losing both of her parents before she was 39 and how in their last years, she helped them find their senses of humor to life live to its fullest.

Diana will have your healthcare staff laughing while delivering a serious message about managing stress and work/life balance.

Perfect for nurses, doctors, and caregivers of all kinds, this program emphasizes how we naturally gravitate towards people that have a good sense of humor. Workers, it's proven, are happier and more productive when they are around people who know when to take life a little less seriously.

Also making an appearance in Diana's presentation is "Ms. Tammy" – the world's oldest (and most cantankerous) nurse!

Some excerpts from Diana's hilarious program:

O.B.G.Y.N: sounds like a character in Star Wars. “Excuse me OBGYN, you have the Wookies. Looks like you'll be Hans Solo for awhile.

CAT Scan: stands for "Costs About a Thousand" dollars.

California–based Health Insurance: if you can't afford your co-pay they air–brush your x-rays until you can!

Prescription Drug Cost: ‘I discovered my dog gets prescribed the same medicine I do. I dropped my Health Insurance and got pet insurance! It’s $39 a month and all the Kibble I can eat!”

ED: no longer just the name of a guy you dated in high school.

Emergency Room Docs: just like Emergency vehicle sirens. You usually don’t know where they're going but you try like hell to keep out of their way.

You might be a Nurse if...

• when using a public restroom, you wash your hands with soap for a full minute and turn off the faucets with your elbows.
• when you tell a man you meet for the first time you're a nurse, you're expected to laugh hysterically when he asks you for a sponge bath, as if it was the most original and wittiest thing you've ever heard.
• your favorite dream is the one where you leave a mess at a patient's bedside and tell a doctor to clean it up.
• you use a plastic 30cc medicine cup for a shot glass.
