My stand-up has been featured in countless clubs throughout North America. Even more countless are the colleges I’ve headlined and the national tours with which I’ve been involved such as the 2006 Nobodies of Comedy Tour. Actually you can count the tours I’ve done: two. I recently performed at the Just For Laughs comedy festival in Montreal. Thats in CANADA! I’ve also been featured many times on the TELEVISION! (See TV credits) If audio is your thing, I’m featured on Invite Them Up, a star-studded comedy CD produced by Comedy Central-- in stores. Hang on theres more. I sometimes warm up audiences for TV shows hosted by people currently more famous than I am, like Jon Stewart, Steven Colbert, Demetri Martin and Marc Maron. My writing has been featured in scores of on- and off-line publications such as The Onion, TimeOutNY and CollegeHumor.com. Oh yeah, I was also featured in Playgirl once wearing short-shorts. No shit. In conclusion, I’m a people person. Get to know me.

About me: I am not Italian. I am a stand-up comedian and writer living in Brooklyn, New York. I grew up in Madison, New Jersey where my father, an elementary school gym teacher, taught me about life through dodgeball. In high school I was elected class clown (it was a landslide). I attended the University of Delaware where I studied film, fronted a cover band called Snackplate and hurdled things for the track team. In 1999, I started telling jokes on stage in New York City... the exciting conclusion to this story can be found in my Comedian Bio to the left.....
Who I'd like to meet: Mr. Right (not in a gay way)
just because you won't be at bumpershoot this year does not mean you can't perform. (for me) you're a stand up so why don't you stand up in front of me and make me laugh. we don't need no stinkin' bumpershoot... i will be in the city for the new yorker fest shortly..keep me on you calendar :)
mmmmmmmmmmmm bop. i never watch tv but just happened to be on the right couch and the right channel at the right time last night, and there you were in your golden glory. missing my funny friend. love, neighabe ? i cant remember how that one went but i remember liking it.
you are so incredibly. . . . marvelous. Ratings are very important in the world of serious comedy. Send me your MP3's and Joe Westhead will definately be pleased, as well as Chief Apache. Make them good because we're having dificulties coming up with new voices in an attempt to disguise our own, so your voice is what we need. Send them to theshedtimes@yahoo.co.uk and perhaps we can put a lid on the first show. You the man, JH
I like how when you sign your letters..its either "x" or "o".. never both. i like how i'm not sure if you mean "hugs"...or just "kisses"... i understand you are unable to give both.
