Iowa Memorial Union | Iowa City, IA

Join us on April 18th at 7:30 PM in the Main Lounge of the Iowa Memorial Union for a conversation with Josh Peck. This event is free to all and seats will be available on a first come, first serve basis.
Actor and social media sensation Josh Peck was born to entertain, hitting the stand-up comedy circuit at just eight years old. The former Nickelodeon teen star will be immediately recognizable to younger audiences (and their parents), delivering candid and funny insight into "making it" as a child star and beyond. Using his social media channels as an example, he also talks about the artistic and career freedom that comes with bypassing traditional media gatekeepers and connecting with audiences directly online.
His new book Happy People Are Annoying is a humorous and candid memoir reflecting on the stumbles and silver linings of his life—including early struggles with food, drugs, self-esteem, and self-sabotage—and traces a zigzagging path to redemption. Written with such impressive detail and aching honesty, Happy People are Annoying is a visceral memoir full of surprising life lessons for anyone seeking to accept their past and make peace with the complicated face in the mirror.
Josh Peck has established himself as one of Hollywood's rising talents, making the seamless transition from child actor to leading man.
