Seth Herzog

Seth Herzog was the definition of a "comedian's comedian" - a performer who not only drew praise from his fellow stand-up talent, but also nurtured both established and new talent through his critically praised New York show, "Sweet." A fixture on the New York comedy scene since the early 1990s, Herzog's productions eschewed the formality and high prices of mainstream comedy clubs by presenting a looser, more unstructured format where comedians and actors could offer stories, monologues or character portrayals in addition to traditional joke-driven sets. Herzog parlayed his popularity with other comics into minor turns on network television as well as a regular turn as the warm-up comic and occasional performer on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" (NBC 2011-2014). His ability to spot and highlight talented performers, as well as his own unique comic sensibilities, made Seth Herzog a valuable figure on both the underground and high-profile comedy scenes.
