Kevin Israel

At the age of six, Kevin recalls sitting on the couch watching Bill Cosby perform on the variety show, Saturday Night Gold. That night, Mr. Cosby was preparing for his upcoming special 'Bill Cosby: Himself.� Kevin was mesmerized. For many years after he delighted his family during dinnertime with jokes he had memorized from a library of joke books. His mother often called him 'the walking joke machine.' Shortly after graduating from college, Kevin began performing at amateur shows and open-mic nights. Over the years he has created an act that is unique and telling of his own story. He combines the humor garnered from years of family dinners with his own observational experiences and insights on family and relationships and life in general. Once a lawyer, Kevin broke his poor mother's heart when he left the profession for good to pursue his real passion on stage. Kevin has been performing in clubs and schools across the country for over a decade. He is the winner of the prestigious 2013 Gilda's Club Laugh-Off Competition and has been featured on Sirius Radio's Raw dog Channel. Kevin also tours nationally with his comedy troupe, Comedians-at-Law, a group of lawyers turned comedians.
