Jacob Sirof was born and raised in San Francisco, California
during the "Comedy Boom" of the 1980’s.
There were few places more booming than San Francisco,
so nobody was too surprised when Jacob announced at an
early age that he wanted to be a comedian when he grew
up. Today, Jacob still hasn’t grown up, although
he is a comedian. As a young adult, he started doing stand-up
in his hometown, and quickly joined the ranks of a promising
young crop of local talent, which has since been dubbed "The
New Wave" of San Francisco comedy. In 2006, Jacob
was selected to perform at the prestigious "Just For
Laughs" comedy festival in Montreal, Canada, where
he got very drunk and high with comedians and industry-types
from all over the world. His television appearances include "Live
At Gotham" on Comedy Central and "Chelsea Lately" on
E! He has been featured in the San Francisco Chronicle,
as well as the Hollywood Reporter, and performs across
much of the known galaxy. Jacob currently resides in Santa
Monica, California with his wife, fellow comic Sherry Sirof,
and their daughter, Wynter Moon. He would like to do comedy
for ever and ever, yet he is a mere mortal, and will most
likely die someday.
