"Lewis executes a brilliant trifecta as stand-up comedian, actor and author," reports CJ DiRoma, CEO of Station Avenue Productions and Founder of The asterism* Group. "Receiving critical acclaim, he performs over 200 nights a year to sold out audiences throughout Europe, New Zealand, Canada and The United States - he is one of few performers to sell out multiple, renowned theatres, including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Brooks Atkinson Theatre, New York City Center and the MGM Grand in Las Vegas."
Lewis Black's live performances provide a cathartic release of anger and disillusionment for his audience. A passionate performer who is more "pissed-off optimist" than "mean-spirited curmudgeon", Lewis Black is the rare comic who can cause an audience to laugh themselves into incontinence while making compelling points about the absurdity of our world.
In 2009, Lewis filmed his first feature length concert film, Stark Raving Black at the Fillmore Theatre in Detroit. The film had a limited run in theaters across the US and Canada in the summer of 2010. At the end of the theater run, premium movie channel Epix picked up the film for its channel along with the accompanying documentary Basic Black. Both are still aired regularly and can be found in the Epix on demand queue.
A much sought after guest for several late-night television shows, he’s been seen on Larry King Live, is a frequent guest on Late Night with Conan O'Brian and has appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman. He’s had numerous, memorable appearances on CNN and is particularly happy to have contributed to MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann.
In the midst of a rigorous touring schedule, regular TV appearances and movie roles, Lewis has written best selling books, Nothing's Sacred (Simon and Schuster, 2005), Me of Little Faith (Riverhead Books, 2008) and I’m Dreaming of a Black Christmas (Riverhead Books, 2010). All garnered critical praise as well commercial success and spent numerous weeks on the New York Times best seller list.
In addition to his professional pursuits, Lewis is dedicated to a number of charitable organizations. As a long time mentor with the 52nd Street Project, Lewis was roasted in Charred Black 2007 which drew the largest fundraising numbers in the Project’s history. He’s a member of their Advisory Board, is Co-Chair of their Capital Campaign and in 2000, the Ron Black Memorial Scholarship Fund was created in memory of his late brother.
