Unique comedian
 

President of Mount Ida

To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing this letter to recommend William Picard to your Student Activities Board should they be interested in a unique comedy act. As President of Mount Ida College, I try to attend as many student activities as possible. I did attend Bill’s comedy act at Mount Ida. This is the first time that I have been so impressed that I wanted to write a reference letter regarding Bill’s unique talent to not only engage the audience, but to use comedy in a way that helps the audience understand individuals with different abilities and in particular, allow them to laugh along the way.

When I saw Bill “wheel” up onto the stage and then address the audience with his voice liberator, I knew I was in for a special act. The room was filled, and I was curious to observe how our students would respond to and possibly interact with Bill. He was quickly able to put the audience at ease. They weren’t sure when he was cracking jokes about himself and his particular unique circumstance whether they should laugh even though what he was saying was quite funny and they could relate to it. Well, it did not take long and Bill had the audience laughing all the time. If you read Bill’s material, you will find that he uses comedy as a means to educate that he has the same goals as everyone. Regardless of one’s disability, it is how you approach those goals that makes a difference.

Our students were very impressed with him. He was able to keep their attention throughout the performance. I know that they now have a new found respect and perspective for individuals who may be physically challenged. I would strongly encourage you to bring him to your campus if you are looking for a comedy act that is entertaining as well as educational.

Sincerely,

Carol J. Matteson, Ph.D.
President
