Matt Stone

BIO

Stone met Trey Parker at the University of Colorado and together they made a short animated piece called, "The Spirit of Christmas." This launched their most recognized work, the critically acclaimed and award-winning television show, "South Park." The animated series is in its 15th season on Comedy Central and has won Stone 4 Emmy Awards and the coveted Peabody Award. South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, which Stone produced and co-wrote, earned an Oscar nomination and the first NY Film Critics Award for an animated film. In addition to "South Park," Stone has partnered with Parker on the low budget Cannibal! The Musical, the superhero comedy Orgazmo and the marionette action thriller Team America: World Police. Matt Stone is originally from Littleton, Colorado.
