Need an MC or after-dinner speaker?
Daryl has made his mark as a playwright, poet, comedian, magician, ventriloquist, after-dinner speaker, emcee and comedy /charity auctioneer throughout Tasmania, on the big island and more recently overseas.
He also received some notoriety when he was discovered by a ‘twin’ – another Darryl R Peebles from Graham, North Carolina who shares over 40 characteristics with his Tasmanian namesake. This led to media appearances internationally (some 35 interviews) and guest appearances on Channel Seven's Sunrise and The Jay Leno Show.
His career started in electronics, ventured into media, strayed into human resource management and finally arrived back in a media / communications role with a smattering of event management thrown in for good measure.
Some career highlights included working as the Executive Officer on Tasmania's inaugural international arts festival Ten Days on the Island and as an ADF liaison adviser for the Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
He is not as well known for being a commissioned officer in the Royal Australian Navy (now retired after 42 years of service in the Royal Australian Navy Reserve), a recipient of a Prince of Wales Award (2015), a Justice of the Peace and a PhD graduate from the Tasmanian School of Business and Economics at the University of Tasmania where he conducted research into The value of positive humour in the workplace.
