From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Comedian Jeffrey Ross (born Jeffrey Ross Lifschultz) is a stand-up comedian, insult comic, actor & director who currently provides the voice for the beagle Buddy in the MTV2 Sic'emation animated satire program that he created Where My Dogs At?
As a stand-up comic, Jeffrey has appeared TV shows like The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Last Call with Carson Daly, ABC's The View, and HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher. He also performs regularly for American servicemen and women stationed worldwide, and in support of the Hurricane Katrina relief effort in Louisiana and Mississippi.
Jeffrey is also the current Friars Club "Roastmaster General", and was a roaster for the infamous Comedy Central Roast of Pamela Anderson in 2005. He has also written for, performed in and/or produced several other celebrity roasts, such as those for Hugh Hefner, Rob Reiner, Jerry Stiller, Drew Carey, Carson Daly, and William Shatner. He is best known for his joke at a 1999 Friar's Club Roast of comedian Jerry Stiller. Following a bizarre performance from comedienne Sandra Bernhard, Ross made his infamous comment, "I wouldn't fuck her with Bea Arthur's dick."
As a filmmaker, Jeff's directorial debut, "Patriot Act: A Jeffrey Ross Home Movie" recently nabbed the best feature film award at the Montreal Comedy Festival. The film is a funny and poignant documentary that captures Jeff's life changing experience entertaining U.S. troops stationed around Iraq. It features fellow comedians/comic actors Drew Carey, Blake Clark and Kathy Kinney.
In addition to Jeff's recent dramatic turn on CBS's CSI, he has appeared on HBO's Six Feet Under and Showtime's Weeds. In film, he has appeared in Stuck on You and The Aristocrats.
