With a last name like that, Cleveland-based comic David Horning learned at a young age to lean into what bothers him using humor, and his comedy is a reflection of this. His optimistic slant on both mundane and heavy topics has gotten him selected to the New York Comedy Festival, Laughing Devil Comedy Festival, the Cleveland Comedy Festival, and on stages around the country. On top of stand-up, David regularly appears on conference stages as keynote speaker and teaches the leadership value of Thinking Like A Comedian to managers and executive teams across industries. He is a co-founder of Henceforth Comedy, a pop-up comedy club bringing the best up-and-coming comedians from around the country to Northeast Ohio.
