Barry, aka"Barry-Sean"as his Irish grandmother used to call him, was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. As the child of Irish/Scottish immigrants, he shares his lighthearted look at the world through the lens of someone who was “Almost Irish.” In a family where you had to sing a song, tell a story, or step out a quick Irish Dance for your dinner, Barry was left with a deep well of characters (not to mention a love for free food) from which he now draws, as he shares tall tales of the constant influx of colorful relatives who would visit his childhood home, mixed with the cast of characters that lived on his ethnically diverse “Block” in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
Barry brings his special brand of clean comedy, music, and motivational speaking primarily to medical association meetings and corporate events, as well as churches, community events, and anyone else who needs a light hearted look at themselves and others, and a reminder that we are made and equipped to
DO GREAT THINGS! Whether Barry McKenna is sharing a life story, impersonating quirky relatives, or singing one of his hilarious songs, you will laugh (and probably sing) along, as you and your association members, employees, fund raising team, sales or management group, congregation - Everyone!, renew their hope, and sense of purpose, while setting valuable, attainable goals. Barry shares his healing and recovery at the hand of a loving God. All of this is done in a unique and clean way that is fun, safe, and entertaining for everyone! |
After completing Basic Training at Ft. Dix, NJ, in the US Army Reserves, Barry trained at The Academy of Health Sciences in Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, TX in 1985, where he was trained as both a Medic, and Dental Assistant. What a combo! Check the Airway, Stop the Bleeding, and... FLOSS!
