Invite the Geek to Speak


If you'd like to liven up your next event with something fun, educational and maybe even inspiring, invite me to speak! Using still images, video clips and other graphics, these presentations aren't mere lectures. They are infotainment, keeping audiences engaged and entertained while also delivering educational and profound insights into Hitchcock's movies -- even of life itself. Here are a few examples of topics:

  • North by Northwest and the Original Mad Man
  • Alfred Hitchcock: Shakespeare of the 20th Century
  • The Uncanny Valley: Why Hitchcock's Movies Frighten and Entice
  • How to Watch Hitchcock: An Eye-Opening Evening of Film and Philosophy
  • Hopper, Munch and Dalí : Fellow Travelers with the Master of Suspense
I've spoken to crowds as large as 10,000 and have a weekly radio show on the award-winning Radio Dan Show. Career highlights include being invited twice to speak about Hitchcock at The 39 Steps on Broadway in New York City and invited to emcee and co-host a benefit with Tippi Hedren for her Roar Foundation. My lecture-and-a-movie programs have proved to be very popular; using rich visual aids, I deliver an introductory lecture, a screening of a Hitchcock movie, followed by a Q&A session.
