About David Cross
Artist Biography
A fearlessly acerbic comedian whose material (often dealing with social and political themes) engages some audiences and enrages others, David Cross' creative risk-taking helped make him a major figure in American humor from the 1990s onward. Also known as an actor (most notably as Tobias Fünke on the sitcom Arrested Development) and a writer working in film, television, and essays, Cross trades in satirical comedy with a confrontational bent, though his intelligence and daring as a performer elevate him from one-dimensional shock comics. He made an impressive debut on record with 2002's Grammy-nominated Shut Up, You F*****g Baby!, he offered two shows in one package with 2010's Bigger and Blackerer, and he dealt with parenthood (among other things) in his signature edgy style on 2019's Oh Come On.
