Karen Mills has been in the humor business for over 21 years. As a funny stand up comic, Karen has toured clubs, colleges and theaters across the country and she can be heard regularly on Sirius / XM Laugh USA and Blue Collar Radio.
As an inspirational speaker, Karen Mills has been the keynote speaker at survivor events, fundraisers, and sports banquets and she has given commencement addresses. Karen has also been a speaker for TEDx events. Whether she is touring theaters with her comedy show or speaking at conferences, Karen Mills finds the funny in everyday life.
Karen Mills has faced every challenge with determination. For instance, she stands at 5’2” and was told more than once that she was too small to play basketball. Not only did she play, in 1981 she led the nation in assists and became the first, Division 1 first team All-American in UT- Chattanooga’s history. She was the first UTC athlete to earn that distinction in any sport, male or female. Her #12 uniform was retired and Karen became the first female inducted into UTC’s basketball Hall of Fame.
