John Oliver Biography

John Oliver is a comedian, writer, producer, political commentator, actor, and television host. Oliver began his career as a stand-up comedian in the United Kingdom before gaining prominence in the United States as the senior British correspondent on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." He won three Primetime Emmy Awards for his writing on "The Daily Show" and served as its guest host for an eight-week period, a stint that led to further opportunities in late-night television.

In addition to his work on "The Daily Show," Oliver co-hosted the satirical comedy podcast "The Bugle" with Andy Zaltzman, following their earlier collaboration on the radio series "Political Animal" and "The Department." He also hosted "John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show" and has acted in television, most notably as Ian Duncan on the NBC sitcom Community, as well as providing voice work in films such as "The Smurfs" and the remake of "The Lion King."

Oliver hosts the HBO series "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver," which is recognized for its researched comedic segments on politics and current events. The show has received critical and popular acclaim, winning 26 Primetime Emmy Awards, five Writers Guild of America Awards, eight Producers Guild Awards, three Critics' Choice Television Awards, and two Peabody Awards. Oliver's influence on U.S. culture and policy has been described as the "John Oliver effect." He was named to the Time 100 list of the world's most influential people and became an American citizen. Oliver continues to be recognized as a significant voice in late-night television, political satire, and media commentary.
