A native New Yorker and a staple around the New York City scene for years now,
Rob Azzinari is a hardworking performer who crosses many lines to create original
and real content for people to enjoy and relate to. He has been doing so since
the day he graduated College, while working for the NY Mets in the late 90's,
Rob was known for his original in stadium entertainment and was assigned the
task of giving Mr. Met some flair, when you've shared the screen with Mr. Met
you're somebody!
Rob moved on from the NY Mets to try his hand in the entertainment field and
reach people directly. The acting field on the pro level can often get you remembered
in a certain way perhaps you know Rob as the "I like to go fast guy" from his
commercial work.
However, forever the outsider Rob offers his own brand of honest stand-up material
which brings a unique and vulnerable edge to the stand-up scene that has him
often times out of the main stream for what industry insiders have told him
is "to different, it's just not what we see every day, can't you do more ethnic
material perhaps?"
He also enjoys making films and took on the challenge last year of entering
the Tribeca Film Festival's My Life My Card contest and although many of the
other entries had special effects and included known actors. Rob's was just
a true yet slightly bizarre look into the life of a struggling NY actor, his
little taste garnered him an award winning film, titled "I've got an audition
for you!"
Willing to learn and adapt to any form of media possible Rob is the original
author of the internet famous Wonder Years Kevin Arnold stud of all time post.
Don't be fooled by anyone Rob thought of and created that! It debuted on his
website 3 years ago.
Rob now splits his time between acting, hassle free stand-up, enjoyable side projects
like his weekly web/pod cast with friend and fellow comedian
Dan Naturman.
Above all he writes, his true joy, he has this script and two others, as well
as having fully completed scripts for two copywrited television shows. One a
look into the creative mind via the reality competition show format "Sketch
it Out," and a return to old school thriller television with his show "Enter
the Tale." Hopefully, with the help of the public the mainstream will look to
the off beat for some realism and inspiration!
