About Me[x]
Hello, My Name is:
Don  McMillan 

About Me
"Technically Funny"

Male
101 years old
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

I graduated from Stanford University with a Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering in 1982. (I have a BSEE from Lehigh University) I went to work for AT&T Bell Laboratories where I worked as a part of the team that designed the world's first 32-bit Microprocessor. I then moved to the Silicon Valley (San Jose, California) where I worked at VLSI Technology as a computer chip designer. During my 6 years at VLSI I designed more than 50 Standard and ASIC Designs many of which are still out there today.

After winning the 16th Annual San Francisco International Stand-Up Comedy Competition in 1991, I turned in my chips for a microphone. I went on to be the $100,000 Grand Champion on "Star Search" in 1993. I have had numerous television appearances including "The Tonight Show" on NBC, CNN's "The Larry King Show", MTV's "Half Hour Comedy Hour", and A&E's "Evening at the Improv". Nowadays, you can catch me headlining comedy clubs from the "Improvisation" to "Catch-A-Rising Star" across the country.

You most likely have seen me as the star of fifteen national commercials for Budweiser Beer. I play the Bud delivery guy who mans the "freshness hotline" and protects the world against "skunky" beer. I can also be seen in commercials for 7-11, Franco-American Ravioli, Little Caesar's Pizza, ServiStar Hardware, and United Airlines.

In the movies, I am currently starring in the award winning independent feature "Don: Plain & Tall". It's the story of an engineer who tosses it all away to become a stand-up comic (sound familiar?) "Don: Plain & Tall" was awarded "Best Feature -Comedy" at the Back East Film Festival. The movie will be showing in other film festivals throughout the year. I have also appeared in the feature ength films: "Air Bud III..World Pup", "Life Without Dick", "Macon County Jail", "Party Crashers", and "Fanatics". I have guest starred on the TV series "Star Trek: Voyager", "Babylon 5", "City Guys", and "Step by Step". I have also been profiled in both "Entertainment Weekly" and "TV Guide".

I have not lost contact with my high-tech roots. I have performed over 300 shows for major corporations around the United States including IBM, Apple, Sun Microsystems, and Cisco (See "Corporate Comedy"). My corporate show utilizes my unique background to take a lighthearted look at computers, technology, and the high-tech life. My PowerPoint slides are like none you've ever seen. I am the only comedian that references "Avagadro's Number", "DRAM", "XML", and Beta tests all my jokes.
