| Jazz Stories by Chris White |
|---|
 Chris White is a crowd favorite in Washington D.C., and he now travels to perform at clubs across the country. In the summer of 2007 he was featured on "Last Comic Standing" (for two minutes, but still); he has participated in the Boston and Washington comedy festivals; in May 2005 he won the Carnival Comedy Challenge in Pittsburgh, Pa.; and he has worked with many fine comedians, all of whom secretly wished they were Chris. He operates the Web site dcstandup.com, and in August 2004 he released his first full-length comedy CD, "Forbidden Style."
Chris was born and raised outside of Philadelphia and is one of three brothers. His parents are a lawyer, which is funny, and a nuclear physicist, which is a lie. He is a life-long fan of the Phillies, which requires both an excellent sense of humor and the ability to swing a bar stool. After studying history and journalism at the University of Richmond, Chris edited opinion columns at The Washington Post for five years before becoming a full-time comedian. He currently lives on Capitol Hill, if you can call that living.
