David Hunter
Reviews
David Hunter is a genius at connecting "down home" values of character, integrity and honor to today's changing scene. His sedesplitting renditions of country life will surely place him as a peer of Jerry Clower, Andy Grittith and Will Rogers.

He is the only speaker we have used twice and both times he received a standing ovation...something our group does not do often.

People laughted until they had tears in their eyes. Dr. Hunter received a standing ovation and I received credit for getting a great speaker.

Speech Topics
- Breakout Session: Stress Management through Good Health and Humor
Stress is present in all phases of our lives. Dr. Hunter uses common principles of stress management with lots of humor to teach how we can reduce stress and cope. As he interacts with the audience there will be learning and a lot of laughter.
- Facing Midlife With Laughter
We are all aging. We cannot ignore that we are aging because of the physical changes taking place in our bodies and the fact that there is always somebody around who seems to take pleasure in reminding us that we are growing older. The question we must ask ourselves is this: Do we want to become bored, unhappy, and humorless people, or do we want to continue to enjoy life like we can? Through humor, inspiration, and motivation, Dr. Hunter shows us that midlife can be one of the most rewarding, gratifying periods of our life.
- From Country to Cosmopolitan
David was born on a farm in rural Kentucky. He knows what it means to milk a cow by hand and plow a corn field with a mule because he has been there and done that. He also understands modern agriculture because he has three college degrees in agriculture. He has worked his entire career in the field of agriculture. He has always been proud to be a part of agriculture. He can make farmers and agribusiness people feel proud to be a part of our great agricultural system.
- From Poverty to Prosperity: Education Was The Key
From a poverty-stricken rural farm youngster with little self-confidence and low self-esteem, David relates what education has meant to his life. He tells of teachers who directed him, were role models, and encouraged him to stay in school and live up to his fullest potential. The audience may shed a tear when he relates how teachers have touched his life.
- If It Is To Be It Is Up To Me-I Can Make A Difference
Many times it is difficult to connect with an audience of youth. But David uses learning the auctioneer's chant to hold their attention while giving them many lessons of life about goals, values, ethics, and patriotism. He will have the youth on the edge of their seats riveted to every word.
- Levity and Lessons From Life
There is an old adage which says, "There are two things in this world that are certain—death and taxes." Well, Dr. Hunter believes there is a third thing in this world that is certain and that is "Change". In fact, life is a series of changes and change will occur whether we like it or not. Either we embrace it and adapt to it or change will occur all around us and affect our lives whether we like it or not. Change is not always easy. Some change we welcome with enthusiasm. Other change we have mixed feelings about. Some change we are just downright anxious or fearful about. But if we don't change, we don't grow. Growth and maturity means that we sometimes have to step outside our comfort zone and maybe temporarily surrender our sense of security.
Dr. Hunter will take us on a humorous, reminiscent journey of changes that have occured in his life from his humble beginnings of growing up in rural Kentucky to his service in the military in Vietnam. He will relate some of his military experiences and how proud he is to be American. His experiences should trigger memories of changes that have occured in all our lives.
He will remind us:
• To always face change with a positive attitude.
• To always look for the opportunities that change can bring.
• To remember that it is only through change that we are able to have the quality of life that we enjoy in this country today.You will laugh. You will cry. You will feel proud to be an American.
