Andy Kindler is known in comedy circles as a troublemaker. Originally from New York, and now complaining from California, he annoys people all over the world. Andy was a frequent guest and correspondent for The Late Show with David Letterman. Each summer at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal, he delivers the State of the Industry address to a packed ballroom filled with comics and Hollywood industry types. He is infamous for his scathing attacks on the world of entertainment, including the previously taboo practice of making fun of his fellow comedians. Just as the comedy boom of the nineties was imploding, Andy wrote the "Hack's Handbook" for National Lampoon—a satirized "how to" guide that exposed tired comedy formulas. Andy can be seen in his second Comedy Central half-hour special and was a judge on the seventh season of NBC's Last Comic Standing. He recurred on Disney's Wizards of Waverly Place and Fox's animation, Bob's Burgers. He was also a regular comedy litigator on Lewis Black's The Root of all Evil on Comedy Central. Other noteworthy credits include the HBO's Young Comedians Special, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Daily Show, Dr. Katz Professional Therapist, Home Movies and The Larry Sanders Show. Andy is also known for playing the life affirming character "Andy" on the CBS sitcom, Everybody Loves Raymond.
