| MARC MARON is a standup comic, actor,
and writer who has appeared in countless clubs, in film, and
off-Broadway and is the author of The Jerusalem Syndrome (based on his one-man show).
Engaging his audience as a storyteller, Marc is known for his
incisive cultural and political commentary, mystical ruminations,
and neurotic insights into human nature. Born in New Jersey
and raised in Albuquerque, NM, Marc started his comedy career
in the late 1980s in Hollywood, as a doorman at the famed standup
venue The Comedy Store.
He has lived in Boston, San Francisco, and New York City, where
he co-founded possibly the first alternative comedy event, "Eating
It", with friend and comedy star Janeane Garafalo at the Luna
Lounge Club.
Marc has appeared on just about every TV show that will allow
comics, from The Late Show with David Letterman to Late Night
with Conan O'Brien, where he is a special favorite.
Marc is currently back in Los Angeles where he lives with his
fiancée Mishna and his girl cat Butch, and is in talks for hosting
a radio show.
Praise
...
"Marc
Maron had our opening night audience in absolute hysterics ...
We could not have picked a better performer to open our festival!"
- Rory Richards, Chutzpah! The Lisa Nemetz Showcase of
Jewish Performing Arts
"More
intelligent than Lenny Bruce, loonier than Robin Williams and
more emotionally honest than Spalding Gray, Marc Maron's Jerusalem
Syndrome is a maniac memoir of a road trip to the promised
land via Chelm, Hollywood and the dark sideof the moon."
- Henry
Korn , Poway Center for the Performing Arts Foundation.
"There's
no hell like being a seer in modern times, but it's a burden
that the mystically neurotic, hyper-intelligent comic Marc Maron
gladlly bears to make us laugh." - The New Yorker
