Patric Richardson is the Laundry Evangelist

Patric Richardson is known for his book, Laundry Love: Finding Joy in a Common Chore, now in its fourth printing, and television show, The Laundry Guy, on HGTV and Discovery+. He teaches people new and better ways to care for all of their apparel and home textiles and shares his love of laundering everything, from cashmere sweaters to tailored suits, at home. Patric will explain why he believes “You don’t have to do laundry, you get to do laundry” and shares revolutionary methods for cleaning clothes - and making laundry loads more fun!

Before there was a TV show and before there was a book, Patric Richardson loved laundry. When he was barely three years old, Santa brought him a toy washing machine, fueling a passion already inside him for clothes, both wearing them and their care. He studied merchandising apparel and textiles at the University of Kentucky and then left for an incredible career in luxury fashion at McAlpins, Neiman Marcus, and Nordstrom. Time spent in these legendary department stores taught him two major lessons: that incredible clothes are fun and that all clothing, regardless of price, can be cared for at home.

Patric has a new book, House Love: A Joyful Guide to Cleaning, Organizing, and Loving the Home You're In. Discover the joy of cleaning with this cheery and thoughtful guide to tidying up and turning your house into a home. His philosophy is simple: tidying up is a privilege and a task you do for those you love (including yourself), and there are a million ways to infuse joy into the everyday tasks behind maintaining a home. House Love is his sunny guide to freshening up every inch of the house—from the entryway to the attic, the backyard to the bedroom. Patric shares his best design inspiration, DIY projects, and, of course, cleaning tips, so you can fall in love with your home all over again—or for the very first time!

Patric has been featured in both local and national media - including Live with Kelly and Ryan, the Washington Post, Good Morning L.A., the Wall Street Journal, NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, The New York Times, WGN, Twin Cities Live, the Pioneer Press, GMA3, The Tamron Hall Show-and international media, including the BBC, The Globe, Daily Mail and Die Welt.
