About Baratunde Thurston

Baratunde is a comedian and vigilante pundit who lives at the intersection of comedy, technology, and politics.

Currently, Thurston serves as the web editor for The Onion, but also writes for The Huffington Post and his own website baratunde.com. He is also the co-founder (with Cheryl Contee) of Jack & Jill Politics.

He has authored three books, including “Keep Jerry Falwell Away From My Oreo Cookies”, was nominated for the Bill Hicks Award for Thought Provoking Comedy, declared a Champion of the First Amendment by Iowa State University, and called “someone I need to know” by Barack Obama.

His geek credentials are unassailable. Baratunde graduated Harvard University with a degree in Philosophy and spent eight years offering strategic advice to Fortune 100 companies on the future of communications and media.

Comedy Central hired Baratunde to tweet the inauguration, and Mashable called him “ever-hilarious” and featured him on its best of NYC social media list.

Baratunde speaks at colleges and conferences around the country and performs regularly in New York City, where he lives.
