Aziz Ansari

Performer Headshot
Originally from South Carolina, Aziz Ansari is a standup comedian based in New York City. Rolling Stone recently called him the "Hot Standup" for 2005.

He has appeared on Comedy Central's Premium Blend and will hopefully be on some other shows soon.

Together with Rob Huebel, Paul Scheer, and director Jason Woliner - he is part of the short film collective known as the Human Giant. The group produced the much acclaimed short film series "Shutterbugs" and also the forthcoming "Illusionators." You can see those and other films at his website azizisbored.com.

Aziz hosts the Upright Citizen Brigade Theatre's popular standup show, "Crash Test," every Monday at 11.

He also has a tough time finding a middle ground between modesty and arrogance when writing his bios.
