Hannibal Buress is widely known for having an �irresistible� comedic presence that lands squarely between �cerebral and swagger,� (New York Times). Buress, the 2012 winner of Comedy Central�s award for Best Club Comic, signed a deal with the network that debuted his second one hour special �Live in Chicago� in March 2014. Buress also serves as a series regular on Comedy Central�s Broad City, helmed by executive producer Amy Poehler, and appeared in the film Neighbors, alongside Seth Rogen and Zac Efron.


With talents that also include video directing (�NaNa� by Chance the Rapper), commercial acting (Nike�s Kevin Durant spot), and lending his voice to the much-anticipated game �Grand Theft Auto V�, Buress has been lauded by Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, Esquire, and Variety for his stage presence and wit. As a stand-up comedian, he�s been consistently featured throughout the late-night circuit, including the Late Show with David Letterman, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and the Late Late show with Craig Ferguson. A former staff writer for both SNL and 30 Rock, Buress is the co-host of Adult Swim�s The Eric Andre Show, has guest-starred on Fox�s The Mindy Project, and appears as a regular �expert� on FX�s Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell. In addition, his debut comedy CD, My Name Is Hannibal (2010) and his Comedy Central one-hour special, Animal Furnace (2012), were both lavished with praise, each making multiple Top 10 lists.
