Biography

An Emmy winner for his outstanding performance in the television drama, "Our Father", this former escape artist's (handcuffs, chains, straight jackets) abilities range from intense drama to stand-up comedy. Anthony Griffith, was destined to make you laugh. Married, growing up in the inner city and reared by a religious mother, all help lay the foundation for Anthony's hilarious insights about life, liberty and the pursuit of sanity.

Anthony's rise in comedy is in no small part due to his inventive brand of humor. Whether reminiscing about a younger brother saddled with hand-me-downs, "even his childhood pictures were old pictures of me", or his thoughts on marriage, "After twenty years, five stitches and one restraining order, I've learned to say I'm sorry."

It's this story-telling style that captured the attention of Lea Thau of The Story-ville Center for the Spoken Word.
