SAM CLARK

Sam Clark is a comedian, writer & filmmaker from Denver, Colorado. His recently released debut stand-up comedy special SAM CLARK: BUILT FOR MATH was filmed live at the Denver Jewish Community Center in front of 350 fellow Coloradan Jews (and presumably some gentiles). Sam was a featured comedian on Amazon Prime’s LAUGH AFTER DARK, he wrote for Netflix’s MAGIC FOR HUMANS, Comedy Central's PROBLEMATIC and the CBS Diversity Showcase, and he recently sold his first original TV show to the SyFy Channel. He has directed, produced, and starred in viral videos with over 50 Million YouTube views, featured in TIME, USA Today, Forbes, Business Insider, HuffPo, Buzzfeed and more.

Sam’s first film FAIRVIEW screened at 32 film festivals and won 19 awards, including 10 for Best Comedy or Best Short Film and 4 for Best Actor (Sam playing a worse version of himself). FAIRVIEW was reviewed by Film Daily Magazine as "the political satire we need." FAIRVIEW is a semi-scripted mockumentary about a small-town City Council election in a purple district in Colorado, very loosely inspired by Sam's experience running for President of Harvard’s Student Council as a joke​, accidentally winning by a lot, and then resigning. Much like Sam’s earliest viral videos (fake tours of Yale with real tourists, etc.), FAIRVIEW was filmed with real focus groups of real voters, who helped platformless candidate Sam write a slogan that could please everyone--think a political NATHAN FOR YOU meets a small-town VEEP. Sam is developing FAIRVIEW into a TV series. Learn more at the very real campaign website www.SamClarkForCityCouncil.com.

As a comedian, Sam has been featured in the Laugh Factory's "Fresh Faces," the San Francisco Comedy Competition, the Cleveland Comedy Festival, the Devil Cup, the New South Comedy Festival, the LA Comedy Festival and more. His live-streamed fundraiser variety shows during the quarantined months of the COVID-19 pandemic were featured in Rolling Stone, CNN, and Forbes, and raised over $140,000 for organizations like the NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund and Feeding America. He produces and co-hosts HOT SETS (6 comedians perform; 1 has to eat a habanero pepper first) in Manhattan and Brooklyn (with a tour coming soon!)

​

Sam is well known for his popular "man-on-the-street" videos and sit-down interviews, which he has produced for Snapchat, HLN, HumorTV, Offbeat Media, Money Madness, Filter Unfiltered, Lightshade, On Harvard Time, and other outlets, covering a wide range of political (or just like, silly) topics.

Outside of comedy, Sam is the Lead Video Producer for the YouTube channel Crimson Education, which he built from the ground up to over 225,000 subscribers. He was featured as a “Filmmaker Making a Social Impact” by Authority Magazine for his work at Crimson, where he has overseen production of over 500 docu-style Day in the Life videos, comedic roving reporter videos, and informational videos about college admissions, filmed at college campuses all over the world for high schoolers applying to universities who may not be able visit campuses in person. He has also independently produced videos for the Hollywood Laugh Factory's "Rubee Tuesdays", and worked as a researcher for the Harvard Institute for Quantitative Social Science and the Colorado Governor's Office of Community Partnerships. Sam is a 3rd Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo. He occasionally does drag and frequently teaches children Taekwondo (not at the same time).

Sam is repped in entertainment legal matters by Grace Kallis and Josh Krauss at Ginsburg Daniels Kallis LLP. He doesn't have an agent or manager right now, so if you're an agent or manager thinking of representing him, he'd love to hear from you. He lives in New York, but he'll definitely come to your city to do comedy if you pay him enough.
