Don McMillan graduated from Stanford University with a Master's Degree in electrical engineering in 1982. He went to work for AT&T Bell Laboratories where he worked as part of the team that designed the world's first 32-bit Microprocessor.
He then moved to the Silicon Valley where he worked at VLSI Technology as a computer chip designer. During his six years at VLSI he designed more than 50 Standard and ASIC Designs many of which are still out there today.
After winning the 16th Annual San Francisco International Stand-Up Comedy Competition in 1991, McMillan turned in his chips for a microphone. He went on to be $100,000 Grand Champion on Star Search in 1993. 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 McMillan headlining comedy clubs from the Improvisation to Catch-A-Rising Star across the country.
You most likely have seen McMillan 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.
In the movies, he has appeared in the feature length films: Air Bud III: World Pup, Life Without Dick, Macon County Jail, Party Crashers, and Fanatics. McMillan is currently working on an independent feature loosely based on his transition from chip-designer-to-comedian entitled Don: Plain & Tall. It will be released later this year.
McMillan has guest starred on the TV series Star Trek: Voyager, Babylon 5, City Guys, and Step by Step. He has also been profiled in both Entertainment Weekly and TV Guide.
McMillan has not lost contact with his high-tech roots. He has performed over 300 shows for major corporations around the United States including IBM, Apple, Sun Microsystems, and Cisco. McMillan’s corporate show utilizes his unique background to take a lighthearted look at computers, technology, and the high-tech life.
