Early life and career

Bobrow attended Berkley High School in Berkley, Michigan, and Michigan State University. He plays the tuba and originally majored in music before changing to English Literature. After graduation, he got a job writing copy at a small Detroit advertising agency where he met his wife. He moved to Los Angeles in 1993 and worked at several advertising agencies there, including Campbell-Ewald and Ketchum. While working in advertising, Bobrow began taking improv classes at The Groundlings Theater, eventually performing in their Sunday Company. It was there that Bobrow made several significant connections, including Will Forte, who introduced Bobrow to his agent at UTA, and Jordan Black, who recommended Bobrow for his first TV writing job, on the short-lived sketch comedy show Hype on the WB Network.[1]

Bobrow wrote the second episode of the Fox comedy, The Last Man on Earth, which was first aired as the second half of the series premiere, March 1, 2015.[2][3]
