Howie Mandel has remained a constant force in show business for more than 30 years. Most recently, he embarked on his latest endeavor as a judge on NBC's hit talent competition series America's Got Talent, alongside Sharon Osborne and Piers Morgan. He recently received an Emmy nomination for "Outstanding Reality/Competition Host" for Deal or No Deal and a Daytime Emmy nomination for "Outstanding Game Show Host" for the syndicated version of the show.

Howie's versatile career has encompassed virtually all aspects of the entertainment spectrum, including television, film and stage. From his work on the Emmy-Award winning medical drama St. Elsewhere to the international animated children's series Bobby's World, Howie has become a mainstay of the American comedy scene. In 2009, Howie added another title to his resume, author, when he released his frank, funny, no-holds-barred memoir Here's the Deal: Don't Touch Me. The memoir, which revealed his ongoing struggle with OCD and ADHD and how this has shaped his life and career, made the New York Times Bestseller List on its first week and remained on the list for several consecutive weeks.

Howie started his career on a dare during a trip to Los Angeles in 1979. He was at the legendary Comedy Store on amateur night and was coaxed by his friends to get up and try his luck. As fate would have it, there was a producer in the crowd who immediately hired him to appear on the comedy game-show Make Me Laugh. His appearance on the show led to talk show appearances, a stint as Diana Ross' opening act and eventually to the television series St. Elsewhere, where Howie spent six seasons as "Dr. Wayne Fiscus" on the award-winning NBC drama.

Howie's Emmy Award-nominated animated children series, Bobby's World, ran eight seasons on Fox and now appears in syndication six days a week in 65 countries. As the series' creator and executive producer, Howie was closely involved in its writing, as well as providing the voice of Bobby, Bobby's dad and other characters.

Howie has done countless comedy specials both on cable and network television. He has also hosted his own syndicated talk show, The Howie Mandel Show, and continues to be a mainstay on the talk-show circuit. He frequently appears on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno performing his signature hidden-camera bits. Howie also continues to perform as many as 200 concerts a year throughout the US and Canada.
