Comedian Paul Mecurio ("The Daily Show")

One of the original writers and cast members of "The Daily Show", Paul Mecurio is a comedian with serious cred ... and serious hardware (think Emmy and Peabody Awards). After leaving a career as a Wall Street lawyer, Mecurio wrote jokes for Jay Leno on "The Tonight Show" and worked on "The Daily Show" for seven years. Since then, he's been seen on his own "Comedy Central Presents" special, "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson", NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC and Fox News. Now, he brings his always hilarious blend of topical political humor and observations from everyday life to the Baltimore Comedy Factory.
