Mike, as a teenager, started as a stand up comic in New York City where
he performed at such notable clubs as The Improv, The Comedy Cellar and
Caroline's. From there he landed a job writing jokes for SNL's Weekend
Update and sketches for shows on MTV, A&E and Comedy Central.
This soon brought him to Hollywood where he wrote on a comedy sketch show starring Martin Short. This led to his sitcom writing career where he wrote and produced shows for such stars as George Clooney, Ted Danson and with Eddie Murphy on his animated show, "The PJ's". This launched his animation career as a writer and producer on such series as "Family Guy" and "Futurama."
Along the way he was awarded 5 Emmy nominations (with 1 win), 2 Annine Awards (with 1 win) and a WGA Award for his Futurama episode, "Game of Tones." Mike was also co-exectuive producer on Comedy Central's animated series "Brickleberry" and a contributing writer on Danny McBride's animated series CHOZEN on FX. In 2013 he wrote and produced a documentary on The Improv comedy club. It starred many of the comics Mike started with like; Larry David, Ray Romano and Sarah Silverman.
Mike still finds time to write The Comedy Central Roasts every year and he's a contributor to Vanity Fair magazine.
