Andy Kindler at Laughs

Andy Kindler is known in comedy circles as a troublemaker. Originally from New York, and now complaining from California, he annoys people all over the world.

Andy is a frequent guest and correspondent for The Late Show with David Letterman. Each summer at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal he delivers the State of the Industry address to a packed ballroom filled with comics and Hollywood industry types. He is infamous for his scathing attacks on the world of entertainment, including the previously taboo practice of making fun of his fellow comedians. Just as the comedy boom of the nineties was imploding, Andy wrote the โ€œHackโ€™s Handbookโ€ for National Lampoon. This โ€œhow toโ€ guide satirized and exposed tired comedy formulas.

Andy can soon be seen in his second Comedy Central half-hour special and as a judge on the upcoming 7th season of NBCโ€™s Last Comic Standing. He currently recurs on Disneyโ€™s Wizards of Waverly Place and Foxโ€™s upcoming animation, Bobโ€™s Burgers. He was also recently a regular comedy litigator on The Root of all Evil. Other noteworthy credits include the HBO Young Comedians Special, Late Night with Conan Oโ€™Brian, The Daily Show, Dr. Katz Professional Therapist, Home Movies and The Larry Sanders Show. Andy is often recognized for playing the life affirming character โ€œAndyโ€ on the CBS sitcom, Everybody Loves Raymond.
