Sven "Mr. Lower East Side" Wechsler's Comedian Bio
Bio
Sven was born in Sundsvall, Sweden but grew up in the United States, living in the Chicago area and in Boulder, Colorado for the longest periods of a nomadic existence. He has traveled extensively overseas and this experience finds its way into his comedy.
Schooled as a newspaper journalist (schooled - as in educated, not as in "totally dissed by the hipper more urban journalists"), Sven entered the world of comedy through improv, sketch and drug induced confusion, studying at the Second City and Improv Olympic in Chicago. When he realized how annoying imrovisers were, he started doing standup.
He has recently sobered up and moved to New York in order to fight terrorism in the form of religious fundamentalism. Mostly, he just tells jokes and funny anecdotes.

Sven "Mr. Lower East Side" Wechsler's Interests
General
Spelunking. Learning how to spell spelunking properly. Other stuff that makes me appear interesting, intelligent and fun to be around.
Music
Tool. Also, Simon and Garfunkel - but not Garfunkel. Well he's O.K. in small doses, but we all know where the talent came from. Garfunkel sings pretty, but that only gets you so far.
Movies
All the ones that I'm in... so none so far. I refuse to see a movie until I'm in it.
Television
C-Span, but just for the fights.
Books
Love them. I read tons of stuff. All the big ones and some cutting edge stuff you wouldn't have heard of. Very, very interesting. I'm constantly learning. My brain is actually physically expanding. It's so full of knowledge.
I can't relate to people. I'm much too smart and wise.
Heroes
Strong people who made sacrifices so that others could have a better life. Also, famous people.
I’m a comedian in NYC. I’m hilarious. Trust me.... really. My schedule, what I get around to posting, is below. Also, you should visit my website: www.SvenComedy.com
Also, this is a monthly show I run at the Bowery Poetry Club: www.BRAINYAXE.com
Who I'd like to meet: You for coffee, and we can talk about all the shit you've been saying about me behind my back and why I ignore your "safe" word.

Thanks for having me at Brainyaxe last night, Sven. Good times and cheap beer that I couldn't drink. Next time, though...the bar will earn plenty from me.
Could you please pick up some celery for the salad, and bleach for the bathroom. Also don't forget to turn off the air conditioner when you leave the house. The litter box needs changing too, and I’m short on tampons.
Thanks,
You are a sweetheart!
PS I've signed you up with my yoga class - because like Gandhi said - "Couples that do yoga together, stay together".
Look, everyone knows you're a beautiful, brilliant, billionaire, rock star, astrophysicist. So, why not vote for me to be "America's Next Big Producer?" All you have to do is watch this video. Maybe click on the "love it" button while you're at it. Come on, you owe it to yourself!
