 Allen Klein:
The one and only Jollytologist. A pioneer in the field of applied and therapeutic humor. Through his books and his presentations, Allen shows people worldwide how to deal with everything from traffic jams to tragedies.

He got into this unusual line of work after his wife died of a rare liver disease at the age of 34.  He saw how humor helped her, and those around her, cope.  He also saw how humor helped him get through that loss.  He now teaches others how to find some in trying times.

Allen is also an award-winning speaker and best-selling author as well as the recipient of a Toastmasters Communication and Leadership Award and a Certified Speaking Professional designation from the National Speakers Association.
 
Join Allen and me for an enjoyable hour of fun and insights into how attitudes about humor have shifted over the centuries. Comedian Jerry Lewis has said that Allen Klein is "a noble and vital force watching over the human condition."

Allen's first book, The Healing Power of Humor, is now in a 40th printing and ninth foreign language translation. It shows readers how to use humor to deal with everyday trials and tribulations. His second book, The Courage to Laugh: Humor, Hope, and Healing in the Face of Death and Dying, documents how people have used humor to triumph over tragedy. A recent book, Learning to Laugh When You Feel Like Crying, shows readers how to embrace life fully again after a loss He has also authored nineteen other books, including Change Your Life!: A Little Book of Big Ideas, Inspiration for a Lifetime, The Art of Living Joyfully, and Always Look on the Bright Side.
