Heeb Storytelling: Lisa Kron on the Midwestern Jew

Heeb Storytelling had a very special event at Joe’s Pub in New York City last month with seven-minute stories from Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling (Jackie’s Joke Hunt, The Howard Stern Show), Onion writer Aaron Kheifets, stand-up comedian DC Benny, writer Peter Hyman (The Reluctant Metrosexual), comedian and writer Jessi Klein (Saturday Night Live) and other clever, interesting people.

Tony Award-nominated actress and playwright Lisa Kron (Well) explained the odd contradiction that is the Jew raised in the Midwest, and how "the little Jewish man" who lives inside her likes to raise his voice at temple.
