| Born
and raised in San Francisco, the food and comedy capital of
the world, DAN ST. PAUL grew up in a full-blooded Italian family.
His father, Joe, was well known to The City’s Epicureans as
one of the best fine-dining waiters on the west coast. His grandfather
was a chef. His brother is a cook. Everybody in the St. Paul
family is in the restaurant business except Dan. It’s not that
he’s the black sheep or anything. It’s just that he felt as
a proud and patriotic San Franciscan, he should do his civic
duty and move into comedy to balance out the family tree a bit.
After a seven-year stint of headlining S.F. clubs in the comedy
duo Murphy-St.Paul, Dan launched out on his own with a solo
act that was to land him in the finals of the nation’s toughest
comedy contest, The San Francisco International Stand-Up Comedy
Competition.
Soon after, Dan moved to Los Angeles and appeared on several
episodes of A&E’s “An Evening at the Improv”, VH-1, MTV, and
FOX “Comic Strip Live”. Since then, he has opened for such superstars
as Jerry Seinfeld, Garry Shandling, Natalie Cole, Smokey Robinson,
and Vince Gill. He appeared in the movie “Flubber” with Robin
Williamsand is also the star of his own one-man play, “Outer
Mission, Middle Class — the Diary of an Immigrant’s Son”.
Armed with a Bachelors Degree in Italian from UC Berkeley, a
teaching credential from San Francisco State, and a Masters
Degree in special education, the majority of Dan’s material
comes from being a husband to his wife, Cara and father to his
son, Roy.
Dan is a favorite with corporate clients including Hewlett Packard,
National Semiconductor, IBM, Intel, Nations Bank, Philips Magnavox,
Chevron, Blue Cross, and many, many more. He customizes his
material for each client and event.
