Lewis Black

Comic Lewis Black delivers cutting observations and sarcastic tirades on all things absurd in politics and culture. His exasperated commentary puts common sense before ideology or political party. Comedy Central’s The Daily Show has included his popular “Back in Black” segment since 1996, making Black The Daily Show’s longest-serving contributor. Black’s autobiography, Nothing’s Sacred, accounts for many of his ideas and experiences, including his childhood in Maryland and his education at the Yale School of Drama, where he studied playwriting and earned a Masters in Fine Arts.
