Daniel Tosh (born May 29, 1975[1]) is an American stand-up comedian.

Tosh's first big career break came in 2001 with his performance on The Late Show with David Letterman. His first attempt to appear on the show though was cut short due to time constraints caused by the star guest, Eric Kraff, overextending his segment. He followed with appearances on programs such as The Tonight Show, The Jimmy Kimmel Show and Comedy Central's Premium Blend.[2][3] In 2002, he performed in his own thirty-minute special on Comedy Central Presents. On June 17, 2007, Comedy Central aired a new stand-up special featuring Tosh, Daniel Tosh: Completely Serious.

Daniel Tosh was born in Germany but grew up in Titusville, Florida, the son of a preacher and with one brother and two sisters.[4] After graduating from Astronaut High School in 1993 and later the University of Central Florida with a degree in accounting,[2] Tosh moved to Los Angeles, California, where he currently resides.

Tosh has released two albums, True Stories I Made Up, which was released on November 8, 2005 by Comedy Central and Daniel Tosh: Completely Serious, which was released on June 17, 2007 by Comedy Central.

Tosh is also in the upcoming film The Love Guru with Mike Myers.
