Tim Clue

Long before he was an educator, professional speaker, published playwright, husband and father, Tim was an undiagnosed hyper-active dyslexic rug rat from a small town outside Chicago. From this environment was cultivated a deep passion for teaching, writing and presenting. By 24, Tim was a college educator and coaching a nationally-recognized speech team, all while training at Improv Olympic, Second City and performing stand-up comedy in Chicago. After a decade of little sleep and endless experience, Tim found his voice as a nationally touring comedian--opening for the likes of Jerry Seinfeld, Steven Wright and Larry Miller, to namedrop a few--and his stand up can be seen and heard on YouTube and SiriusXM satellite radio. Tim later shifted his focus back to writing and developing. One of his stage plays, "Leaving Iowa" (premiered at Jeff Daniels' Purple Rose Theatre Company, during which it received a nomination for American Theatre Critics' award for Best New Play in the country) is continuously performed in theaters all over the U.S. and Canada. Now Tim has brought to bear all his experiences from his years as an educator, improv training and headlining comedy stages and has synthesized his calling as a Humorous Motivational Speaker and Corporate Entertainer. Tim has spoken before such notables as former President George H.W. Bush and economist Paul Krugman and is bringing "social" back into the meeting space by inspiring and connecting his audiences through the infinite power of laughter and connection. As a one-of-a-kind team builder, Tim Clue is reinventing conferences and meeting spaces all over the country, one funny experience at a time. Tim lives with his wife and daughter just north of Wrigley Field and is, yes, a lifelong Cubs fan. Especially now.
