Jim Gaffigan
"The America Tour"
Gaffigan has proven himself a major talent beloved to a wide range of audiences, achieving accolades and awards for his stand-up comedy, acting and writing. His clever, quiet style has made him one of the top five most successful touring comedians in the country today and his CDs and DVDs have reached platinum sales. Gaffigan has had an unprecedented number of appearances on late night’s Letterman and Conan. His writing and voice work on the animated series Pale Force for Conan led to nominations for both a Broadband Emmy and a Webby Award.
Gaffigan has had breakout guest appearances on many comedies and dramas ranging from HBO's cult hits Flight of the Concords and Bored to Death to dramatic roles in all three versions of Law & Order.
In recent years, Gaffigan has also become a mainstay on the big screen with memorable roles in Going the Distance, Away We Go and It's Kind of a Funny Story. Gaffigan will next be seen alongside Jennifer Connolly, Ed Harris, Pierce Bronson and Greg Kinnear in the highly anticipated film Salvation Boulevard which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this year.
