Adam Carolla













 

Adam Carolla is one of the most versatile men in Hollywood. Since January 2006, he has served as host of the self titled ADAM CAROLLA SHOW broadcast on CBS radio stations in Los Angeles, Portland and Las Vegas.  The four-hour weekday morning program is also syndicated in several major markets, including Seattle, Sacramento and Fresno, among others.

Carolla co-wrote, co-produced and stars in the independent boxing feature film The Hammer which hits theatres this March. The Hammer made its world premiere at the 2007 Tribecca Film Festival in New York. Carolla also can be seen as a contestant on ABC’s hit reality series “Dancing with the Stars” which just began its 6th season. Additionally, Carolla has hosted Comedy Central's "Too Late with Adam Carolla" and starred in TLC's "The Adam Carolla Project," which chronicled the renovation and subsequent sale of his boyhood home.

Following brief stints as a skilled carpenter and boxing trainer, he began his career in radio after answering an ad seeking a boxing instructor to train then radio personality Jimmy Kimmel of KROQ's KEVIN AND BEAN SHOW in Los Angeles. He eventually joined the show's repertoire as Mr. Birchum, a woodshop teacher. Carolla's success on KROQ led to a hosting job on the nationally syndicated radio program "Loveline," with Dr. Drew Pinsky. MTV developed a television version of the show, which was co-hosted by Carolla and Pinsky for five seasons (1996-2000). The duo also authored The Dr. Drew and Adam Book: A Survival Guide to Life and Love.

With their partner Daniel Kellison, Carolla and Kimmel are the heads of Jackhole Industries and have created and starred in two hit Comedy Central shows, "The Man Show" (1999-2003) and "Crank Yankers" (2002-present). Jackhole Industries also executive produced "Gerhard Reinke's Wanderlust," a comedy travel show which aired on Comedy Central, and a reality-based feature film, Windy City Heat, which won The Comedia Award for Best Film at the 2004 Montreal Just For Laughs comedy festival.

A native of Southern California, Carolla currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Lynette, and their two children.
