About
Todd Barry is a stand-up comedian from the Bronx, New York, and a leader of the City's indie comedy community. His soft-spoken saunter swells with dry-witted jabs and wise-ass sarcasm. In 1999, Barry got his big break with his own Comedy Central Presents special. He has appeared on David Letterman, Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Kimmel, while his voice-acting talents have show up on animated shows Freak Show, Space Ghost and Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Barry's first comedy album, 2001's Falling Off the Bone, is based around cynical takes on his own personal experience. Two subsequent comedy albums were released, again by the Comedy Central label, with 2008's From Heaven being his most hilarious and barbed, full of candid, absurdist humor.
