After winning the 16th Annual San Francisco International Stand-Up Comedy Competition in 1991, Don turned in his chips for a microphone.

He’s 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 Don headlining top comedy clubs across the country including the “Improv”, the “Comedy and Magic Club”, and the “Ice House”.
You most likely have seen Don as the star of fifteen national commercials for Budweiser Beer. He plays the Bud delivery guy who mans the “freshness hotline” and protects the world against “skunky” beer. He can also be seen in commercials for 7–11, Franco-American Ravioli, Little Caesar’s Pizza, ServiStar Hardware, and United Airlines.

Don McMillan has not lost contact with his high-tech roots. He has performed over 500 shows for major corporations around the United States including Microsoft, Apple,IBM, Google, ExxonMobil, and Genentech. Don’s corporate show utilizes his unique background to take a lighthearted look at business-life, technology, and the everyday life. Don prides himself in customizing every corporate comedy show he does. He works closely with each client to prepare a unique comedy show just for them. In 1999, he was dubbed the “PowerPoint Comedian” when he became the first comic to adapt his corporate shows for multi-media. His PowerPoint slides are like none you’ve ever seen! He is the only comedian that references “Avogadro’s Number”, “XML”, and he Beta tests all his jokes.
