Once over 600 pounds Zach Khan is now half the man he used to be, literally. In the process of writing his memoir detailing his 300 pounds weight loss unaided by surgery or weight loss drugs titled, "Half the Man I Used to Be" he was accepted into Yale's Summer Writers Workshop for non-fiction, and like the title says, Yale is far and gas is expensive. You may know Zach as a standup comedian and that's still true. This live performance will include standup comedy, a reading of the writing sample Zach used to get accepted to the program, a reading of the piece Zach is submitting to the workshop, and Zach's first ever public speaking about his 300 pound weight loss journey.
