Dean's comedy comes in large part from having a Palestinian father and a Sicilian mother. An award-winning comedian who has appeared on Comedy Central’s Axis of Evil comedy special, Obeidallah is a co-creator and co-producer of the New York Arab-American Comedy Festival, and has made numerous TV and radio appearances on CNN, PBS, Fox News Radio and the BBC. He is the recipient of the inaugural Bill Hicks Spirit Award for thought-provoking comedy, and his one-man show I Come in Peace was an official selection of the 2006 New York International Fringe Festival.
