SANDY MARKS – a man occasionally making jokes in the world

Sandy Marks broke into the standup scene in the early ’90s after two years spent mining Neil Simon monologues for humor left him desperate to pen his own jokes. (No offense, Neil.) 

He’s got a knack for spinning facts and stats into fast-paced, stream-of-consciousness-style humor that doesn’t just inspire ebullient mirth but also hits home some rather startling truths about humanity. 

When asked, Marks describes himself as vapid, soulless, and paranoid. But this serially self-deprecating Rolling Stone-approved comedian who, according to Time Out New York, may be “appearing at several clubs this week,” is a true charmer with enough energy to make any audience member sufficiently nauseous – or maybe that’s just his outfit (we’re not quite sure). 

Marks has made dashing appearances on CBS’s “The King of Queens,” HBO’s “Comedy in the Park” and as a guest sportscaster advocating animal rights on Fox and Friends (political opinions, his own). In addition to touring nationally and overseas – memorable locations include but are not limited to Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Paris, Venezuela, Turks and Caicos, and Amsterdam – Marks has graced the films “Kiss Me Again," “Manhattan Comedy Nights," and "The Narrows" with his remarkably tall stature and unforgettably enormous hands.
