Todd Barry
Born in New York City, Todd Barry moved to South Florida as a young boy, only to return to the “Big Apple” as an older, more macho man. And though you may not recognize his name, you’d definitely know his face. Barry has been featured on all the major late night talk shows, has appeared in the shows "Flight of the Conchords," "Lucky Louis," "Sex & the City" and "Sesame Street" and has lent his voice to a number of animated shows. You might also recognize him from his recent work on the Academy Award nominated film, The Wrestler. Robert Hawkins
Pay AttentionAs a child, comedian Robert Hawkins was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. This came as a shock to him as he thought he just really hated school. As it turns out, this condition would rear it's ugly head again when he moved into the workforce, which is where he discovered he disliked having a job almost as much as getting an education. Hawkins soon became a pro at getting fired, but then somehow found himself joining the military. After serving three years as an expert combat medic, Hawkins turned to an occupation where he could fully utilize his A.D.D., standup comedy. Since then, Hawkins has released two comedy albums, worked as a writer and guest star on the sitcom Titus, and has appeared on Comedy Central Presents and "Late Night with Conan O'Brien."
