Greg Giraldo

The New York Times has described Greg Giraldo as, "A talented comedian with a winning personality." One of New York City's top comedians and a headliner in clubs across the country, Greg consistently kills audiences with his hilarious and insightful act. Socially provocative and yet broadly funny, Greg has become one of the most versatile and highly entertaining comics working today.

His innovative material and energetic style made him a standout at the prestigious Montreal Comedy Festival in 1995. After Montreal, Greg, a graduate of Harvard Law School who was recently profiled in Esquire magazine, was given the opportunity to develop and star in his own sitcom, "Common Law," which was loosely based on his experiences an a New York law firm.

He has since guest hosted the "Later" show on NBC. He appears regularly on "Late Night with Conan O'Brien." He's been on "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn," "Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher," and starred in the CBS/Castle Rock pilot, "Drive." Greg has been a frequent panelist on "Beyond the News" and "The Full Nelson" on the Fox News Channel. He has been seen on dozens of televised comedy showcases both in the U.S. and abroad including Showtime's "Latino Comedy Festival," "Funny is Funny," Comedy Central's "Comedy Cabana," Louie Anderson's "Comedy Showcase" and "Late Friday" on NBC and "Live at Jongleurs" on the BBC (UK).

Greg returned to the Montreal Comedy Festival in 1999 and performed at the Aspen Comedy Festival in 2001. A popular performer on college campuses, Greg was a 1997 NACA nominee for "Campus Performer of the Year."

His own half hour stand-up special, Comedy Central Presents Greg Giraldo, is currently airing on Comedy Central. He lives in New York City with his wife and a baby boy he believes to be his own.
