Jon Stewart

BIO

Broadway Debut! Jon Stewart is a renowned comedian, writer, political commentator, actor, and television host, best known for his long-running show The Daily Show that offers a satirical look at world events. For his work in the entertainment world, he is the winner of 24 Primetime Emmy Awards, 2 Grammy Awards, and 5 Peabody Awards. He was also honored with the Bronze Medallion in 2019, and the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2022.



Stewart started off as a stand-up comic and has become an international star, known for hosting two Academy Awards ceremonies and for his sustained advocacy for 9/11 first responders. After leaving the Daily Show (before his 2024 return), Stewart used his celebrity and voice in helping to pass the permanent authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act. He continued using his platform as an advocate for veterans by being instrumental in helping pass the Honoring our PACT Act of 2022, which expands healthcare access and funding to veterans exposed to toxic substances during their service including burn pits.


He has authored three books and often appears as himself in TV shows and movies, like Evan Almighty, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, The Simpsons, and more.
