Name: Matthew Walker
Date of Birth: 9 July 1974 Matt Walker is a stand-up comedian and talk show host. Inspired by seeing an unfunny comedian on TV, he decided, "If they can get on TV and be unfunny, than I can at least be unfunny on a stage." Luckily, he saw an ad on the Internet for a comedy class taught by nationally headlining comedian Dante. (Yes, he has a last name, but no, I can't spell it, and besides, he doesn't use it anyways.) Dante had Matt up on stage after two class sessions, and that quickly led to him playing open mics around ... Southern California 3-4 nights a week. Fortunately for his audiences, Matt turned out to be pretty funny. He counts as his major influences Dante, Ron White, Dave Attell, David Cross, Chris Rock, Bob Newhart, and Dave Chappelle. He has studied with Dante since June 2003, and has played shows at casinos, bars, bowling alleys, video stores, and corporate functions. He was also asked to be a featured participant at the roasts of comedian/actor Eric Edwards, comedian Rene Sandoval, and Dante. Matt now regularly performs throughout California, and has performed at venues such as The Comedy Store in Hollywood, Moondoggies in San Diego, Black Oaks Casino in the Yosemite area, and at the Friar's Club in Beverly Hills. Matt finished 2nd in the "Funniest Comic in the Valley" contest in 2004, and was a finalist again in 2005. He has a small role in the film Tears of a Clown, directed and produced by Tony Spires, and was recently cast in the pilot of a reality show about young comedians in Southern California to be produced by GoKart Films. Broadcaster Matt has produced and co-hosted Small Business Radio on 97.1 FM KLSX in Los Angeles since the spring of 2002. Broadcasting each week to tens of thousands of listeners, the show is both entertaining and educational. The show teaches entrepreneurs, managers, and small business owners how to attract more business. The show was honored by the Small Business Administration in California when Matt's co-host, Mark Deo, was named "Small Business Journalist of the year" for 2003. Matt also co-hosted the National Hair Hour, a show all about the prevention and treatment of hair loss from November 2002-December 2003 on KLSX.Read more Matthew Walker movies (actor)
