During Jim Breuer time at "SNL," he was probably best known for his original character "Goat Boy" and his Joe Pesci impersonation on the reoccurring "Joe Pesci Show."
A stand-up comedian since his college days in Valley Stream, Long Island, New York, Breuer worked in comedy clubs around the country for several years before deciding to become a regular on the New York City comedy circuit. After being in New York City for only seven months, he landed a gig on the show, "Uptown Comedy Club" where he spent two seasons.
Breuer has been featured on many network and cable television showcases, such as CBS's "Late Show with David Letterman", NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien", "Friday Night" and he guest-hosted NBC's "Later" and Comedy Central's "Premium Blend." He also had his own half-hour show on MTV entitled "The Jim Breuer Show" and his own special Comedy Central's "Pulp Comics."
Breuer's feature film career began to take off after leaving "SNL" and he starred in Universal Pictures' hit comedy, "Half-Baked" and in Phoenix Pictures', "Dick." He recently completed filming a role in Laurence Fishburne's directorial debut, "Once in the Life."
