He is a comedian whose unique comedy perspective, “Proud to be an American,” has delighted millions around the world. His peers consider him a master at involving and interacting with his audience. Nazareth – yes, that’s his real name – was born the youngest of three brothers in the Holy Land. He lived for part of his life in Kuwait . Nazareth ‘s parents wanted him to find a better life. So in 1984 they sent him to college in Toledo to study engineering. Few years later, Nazareth showed up at a California comedy club for open-mic night. At midnight he took the stage before a crowd of nine drunks. “They laughed so hard. One of them fell off his chair laughing,” Nazareth recollects. “I got hooked.” So the next day, he hit the Comedy Store’s open-mic night. Within a few months, Nazareth was performing regularly at Hollywood ‘s top Comedy Clubs. He won the Laugh Stop’s Comedy Competition and became one of the new faces at the Improv (The #1 Comedy Club in the U.S.)

He’s performed at UCLA, USC, William-Mary, and Drew University to name a few and has served Fortune 500 Corporations such as Coca Cola, Qualcomm, Bank of America, and Hughes Aircraft.

The New York Times reports on one his tours: “The show had the audience convulsing.”

Beyond the stage, Nazareth and his wife of thirteen years, Maha, and their three young children reside in Southern California .

With all his accomplishments, Nazareth insists that his biggest credit is that he’s a husband and a father.
