His act is truly a pop-culture gold mine – from politics to cartoons, John covers it all, with a fast-paced, highly animated delivery.John kicked off his comedy career in 2001 after being fired by a prestigious law firm in Columbus, Ohio. A short while later, John moved to Chicago and studied improvisation at the Improv Olympic, Annoyance, Comedy Sportz, and world famous Second City Theaters. He honed his stand-up skills at various windy city venues before hitting the road full-time in 2003.http://www.johnburtoncomedy.com/
