Clay Beyersdorfer is a writer specializing in humor and copywriting living in Chicago, Illinois. He can be seen attempting to achieve stardom at any open mic he can find in the Windy City, where he tackles issues like the overprivileged white male, sports ball, and life as a person who willingly and openly chose to working in advertising. Clay has studied stand-up and writing at The Second City in Chicago. Because he is a former Army sergeant, you can usually find Clay screaming himself hoarse while waiting in line at your local VA Hospital, or playing with his bulldog, Blue.
