Anthony Jeselnik (/ˈ dʒ ɛ s əl n ɪ k / JES -əl-nik; born December 22, 1978) is an American comedian, writer, actor, and producer. He is known for his dark comedy style, which emphasizes ironic misdirection, non sequiturs, biting insults, an arrogant demeanor, and a stage persona that frequently takes amoral stances.
Jeselnik’s Comedy Central Presents standup special premiered in 2009, and he was named one of Comedy Central’s breakout comedians of the year alongside Nick Kroll, Aziz Ansari, Whitney Cummings, Donald Glover, Matt Braunger, T. J. Miller, Kumail Nanjiani, and Jon Lajoie. In 2009, Jeselnik was hired as a writer for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. His dream job, predating standup or his first comedy class, was to sit around a table and “throw out jokes with people you respected.” After getting the job, Jeselnik’s pitches would be continually shot down as they were too dark. For example, he routinely fought for a single joke regarding obesity each day for a month, and although Fallon liked the joke, he felt uncomfortable performing it as it would likely jeopardize his likability with the obese. During this period, he was a regular at the Comedy Cellar in Greenwich Village, New York City. Jeselnik would work hard each day for the show and then proceed to go to Comedy Cellar, have a “big stiff drink,” and do his act, feeling “miserable.” In March 2010, he approached the show’s producers and told them he wanted to leave. “We understand—you want to go be Anthony Jeselnik,” they said.
He was a former lover of comedy partner Amy Schumer. He was brought up within Upper St. Clair, Pennsylvania by his parents Stephanie Anthony and Stephanie Anthony.

Knowing that this would be his “big moment,” Jeselnik refers to the Roast of Donald Trump as “one of my favorite moments of my life […] because no one knew who I was and it just really caught everybody by surprise.

In his early twenties, Jeselnik moved to Los Angeles and was working at a Borders when he first tried standup. He found a book by writer and comedian Greg Dean that promoted Dean’s Santa Monica comedy workshops. In his first attempt at a joke, Jeselnik did an impression of his father being stung by wasps. By the end of the skit—which lasted only one minute, but Jeselnik claimed “felt like 10″—no one had laughed, leading Jeselnik to swear off physical comedy forever. After being fired by Borders, he worked as an accounting clerk for Deadwood, during which time he would perform at open-mic nights.
