Born in Queens and raised on Long Island, Dave Attell got into stand-up comedy in the late eighties after graduating from New York University with a degree in Film and Television. Attell used this prestigious degree to land amazing jobs in the food service industry - as a waiter. At night he would hit the "open mic" circuit in Manhattan. After many years, Attell worked his way up through the club scene onto the road, touring across America as a national headliner and developing a huge following among fans and the industry alike.
Dave Attell was named one of the "25 Funniest People in America" by Entertainment Weekly Magazine. His caustic wit, rapid-fire delivery and his choice of material that can best be described as "very adult" has earned him the reputation as a "comic's comic." But if you ask Attell, he'd say, "I'm just trying to get some laughs and sell some drinks."
In 2001, Attell used this love of booze and laughter to create and host the hit series, "Insomniac with Dave Attell" for Comedy Central. A travelogue show in which Attell goes from city to city looking for late-night fun, The New York Times called the show, "a doubly rare beast, a comedy without rancor and a travel show about the virtues of the American underdog." To Attell, the Insomniac show is more of a cross between "Girls Gone Wild" and "Cops".
After four seasons of "Insomniac," Attell taped several hour-long "Insomniac" specials overseas in Japan, Germany, England and Brazil. Once back in the states, he headed out on a thirty-five city theatre tour ending in Vegas, where he hosted a two-hour special for Comedy Central featuring Sean Rouse, Greg Geraldo and Dane Cook, some of the biggest comics in the country.
Dave Attell has made numerous appearances on "The Late Show with David Letterman," "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien," "The Howard Stern Show," "Last Call with Carson Daly" and "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart". He also appeared in Chris Rock's cult film "Pootie Tang". Other television credits include FOX's "Arrested Development," NBC's "Ed," HBO, Comedy Central's "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn" and his own half-hour stand-up special "Comedy Central Presents Dave Attell".
When not on the road, Attell makes regular appearances at the Comedy Cellar in New York City.

Dave killed for an hour straight without a wasted second. One of the best to ever do it.
We laughed the entire time. My stomach was hurting so bad at the end from all of the laughter. It was a great show and definitely recommend this to anyone at least to anyone who doesn't get offended easily lol
Funniest live comedic performance I've seen so far. One of the greatest to ever do it!
I'm so glad I went to his show, he totally killed it with his standup and improv. Dave is down to earth, he even took pictures with a lot of the audience afterwards. Good dude!
Dave Attell is one of the best at his craft. You won’t stop laughing from start to finish. I have seen a lot of comedy shows and he is truly one of the best…
A great time with one of the beat stand up comics out there. Been over 5yrs since I have seen Dave Atell in concert ..and he did not disappoint! A laugh riot
Good show but very short...... Could have been more than an hour show
I got a headache from laughing so much. It was really one of a kind and non stop laughter. He’s one of the funniest comedians I’ve seen perform in a long time and I’m glad I got the chance to see him.
So funny, we laughed the whole time! It was an hour and half, which was fine by me, but we laughed the entire time. Loved his insomniac show, glad he came around.
