A native of Providence, Rhode Island, Paul Mecurio is an Emmy and Peabody Award winner for his work on 'The Daily Show w/Jon Stewart.' He has appeared in his own Comedy Central Special, starred in his own series on HBO, appeared on CBS's 'The Late, Late Show,' VH-1, 'Conan O'Brien,' 'Red Eye w/Greg Gutfeld,' 'Hannity,' CNN, MSNBC, 'The Tonight Show,' 'The Daily Show,' and ABC's 'Wednesday's at 9:30.' Paul graduated with honors from Georgetown Law School and began his career on Wall Street as a mergers and acquisitions lawyer at the law firm of Willkie Farr and Gallagher and later as an investment banker at CS First Boston. All the while, Paul was honing a second career writing and performing comedy and was hired by Jay Leno to write jokes for “The Tonight Show.” With the encouragement of Jay, Paul moved center stage, leaving Wall Street and starting his career as a stand-up comedian.
Paul was invited to be on the writing team for a new Comedy Central show called “The Daily Show.” As a writer for “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart,” Paul won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Individual Achievement In Writing In A Variety, Music or Comedy Program. Paul has also been honored with a Peabody Award for Excellence in Broadcasting (think The Pulitzer Prize for Broadcasting) for his work on The Daily Show. Paul has also received a second Emmy nomination for his work on “The Daily Show.” Paul has been featured on “The Daily Show” as a correspondent and in “The Daily Show” segment, “Second Opinion,” in which he skewered the medical profession playing an HMO representative with a less than sympathetic mindset.
Paul also created, executive produced, stars in and hosts the HBO Sports web series, “Got No Game with Paul Mecurio,” which recently premiered with weekly installments at www.HBO.com and www.paulmecurio.com. The series takes a satiric look at the world of sports through original sketches and one-on-one interviews and has been nominated for an Emmy Award.
