Papa’s other acclaimed specials include What a Day!, You’re Doing Great!, Human Mule, Freaked Out, and Tom Papa Live in New York City, two of which were directed by Rob Zombie.
In addition to his work on stage, Papa has authored three books, most recently We’re All In This Together…So Make Some Room in 2023, which followed You’re Doing Great! – And Other Reasons to Stay Alive and Your Dad Stole My Rake: And Other Family Dilemmas. He is also a contributing writer to The New Yorker. His ventures extend beyond comedy, including a recent collaboration with Nambé on the Tom Papa X Nambé Bread-Making Collection, launching October 15.
Papa also hosts the weekly podcast Breaking Bread with Tom Papa, as well as SiriusXM’s What a Joke with Papa and Fortune and the monthly Come to Papa Live. On screen, he has appeared in films such as Paper Spiders, The Informant opposite Matt Damon, Analyze That opposite Robert De Niro, and the HBO Emmy-winning Behind the Candelabra, directed by Steven Soderbergh.
