Maureen Langan is an award-winning stand-up comic and radio talk show host. In her one-woman show, Daughter of a Garbageman, Maureen shares with great humor and great heart the story of growing up with her Irish mother and Bronx-born father, in a loving, but flawed family. With working-class values peppered with alcoholism and other challenges, Maureen reveals her the strengths, struggles, and secrets and the lessons she has taken (or ignored) into adulthood and life as a performer. Somehow she manages to salvage the most loving messages she was taught, including her dad’s peculiar statement of affection: Love your guts!
Daughter of a Garbageman has been called a “one-woman tour de force” and was chosen Top Three Solo Shows in the SF Bay Area and has received rave reviews in New York, Florida, Nantucket, Berkeley, and Edinburgh. Maureen is a seasoned TV and radio broadcaster. She hosted Hanging with Langan a three-hour talk show on KGO Radio in San Francisco for seven years, was an on-air reporter and anchor for PBS and Bloomberg Television and Radio. She is a MAC Award-winner who has performed on Broadway with Rosie O’Donnell and has opened for Steven Wright, Dennis Miller, Joy Behar, Jordan Sparks, and Gladys Knight.
