HEADLINER BIO

Dan LaMorte is a unique stand-up comedian, and that’s not just because he’s on the spectrum. His career started young, at 19 years old, after suffering a career-ending injury as a college baseball player. As his star rose in comedy, so did his weight. He appeared on Fox’s Red Eye, AXS TV’s Gotham Comedy Live, Getting Doug with High, and almost every drive-thru in the Tri-state area. He released two albums, Not Enough Pieces & Infect Me Once, both are still popular plays on SiriusXM and have amassed over a million streams on Pandora. By the time he was 23 years old, Dan had built an impressive resume, unfortunately, he had also built a 354-pound body.

But that year everything changed. After a doctor told him he had fatty liver disease, Dan decided to ditch the fat life and find the athletic drive again. Over the course of the next three years, he would go on to lose over 185 pounds, become an ultra runner (races longer than marathon distance), and inspire many of his fans to pursue their own weight loss journeys along the way. He may have lost the weight, but his sense of humor is still fully intact. In 2023, Dan was chosen as one of the prestigious New Faces at the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal. In 2024, Dan released a popular short special with Don’t Tell Comedy, on YouTube. When not on the road, Dan is a fixture of the New York City comedy scene, and has been for over a decade; you can regularly see him at the Comedy Cellar and The Stand comedy clubs.
