Detail:

Raised the son of a black mother and a Jewish stepfather, Greer Barnes was the only black kid in his neighborhood in The Bronx to have a bar mitzvah. A talented athlete who was scouted by the San Francisco Giants, Greer was benched by an injury and set about pursuing his other talent, making people laugh.

Greer began his comedy career in the early nineties, and within a few years made his national television debut with an appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. His other television appearances include Last Call with Carson Daly, Comedy Central's Premium Blend and Shorties Watching Shorties, MTV and HBO. Following a national tour with Dave Chappelle, Greer also went on to be a regular performer on the mega hit, Chappelle's Show.

Greer also combined his love of baseball and performing when he was featured in the Kevin Costner film, For Love of the Game.

Greer Barnes is one of the nation's most seasoned and talented performers. His conversational style, mastery of dialects and quick wit have made him a favorite at clubs throughout the country and around the world.
