About Comedian Michael Danziger
Michael "Ziggy" Danziger is a professional stand-up comic from Memphis, TN. He is a past "Funniest Person in Memphis" winner and the current, reigning "Funniest Jew in the Deep South." (Seriously. There was a contest.) Some of his original material was published in Alpha Books' The Complete Idiot's Guide to Jokes. (Again, seriously.)
Michael is known for his clean, playful, well-written material and his timing, and is a hit with club, corporate, and college audiences. A portion of the proceeds from all of Michael's shows is donated to Camp Dream Street in Utica, MS. He is spending the year in Israel and is performing frequently before English-speaking audiences there, but looks forward to performing around North America upon returning to the U.S. in the late Spring 0f 2012.
