Trevor Moore (comedian)

Trevor Moore (born April 4, 1981 in Montclair, New Jersey) is an American comedian, actor, satirist, cartoonist, writer and director. Known mostly for his current project, the New York City-based comedy troupe Whitest Kids U Know, Moore's other noteworthy projects include The Trevor Moore Show and Uncle Morty's Dub Shack.

Career

In 1996 a show, dubbed "The Trevor Moore Show" ran on Charlottesville Public Access TV in Charlottesville, Virginia, and began to garner a following among the local college community.

In 1998, Trevor was offered a deal to produce new episodes of "The Trevor Moore Show" for WADA-TV, formerly a PAX TV affiliate. The show only lasted sixteen episodes before backlash from skits like "Who Died Today?" (a parody newscast from the local senior citizen's home) resulted in the show's immediate cancellation, due to offensive material.

Trevor works at the cable TV startup ImaginAsianTV as a producer/ writer for Uncle Morty's Dub Shack, a comedy show that involved comedians revoicing and parodying old Asian movies of marginal quality.

In 2004, Trevor's comedy troupe, Whitest Kids U Know began a regular engagement at the lower East Side bar "Pianos". The troupe was also invited to the HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in 2006 and won the jury prize for "Best Sketch Group".

The troupe recently finished shooting a 10-episode sketch comedy series for the Fuse network. The series debuted on March 17, 2007 and since then has gained relative popularity. New episodes air every Tuesday at 11:00pm.
